The apartment is in a great location and the booking process was easy. But, after travelling door to door for 29 hours, to then arrive at Ike’s place and find that the gas stove was not working and no kettle to be found, was very disheartening. Yes, we were later told of the tragic gas explosion in the next street that happened in 2015 and that upgrades to gas pipes were still taking place. However for our visit, there were no provisions made for our use of cooking or heating appliances. There was no indication of this in the apartment’s listings when we booked in May or closer to our arrival in September. After texting Ike of the situation (and to be fair he was responsive to the best of his ability as he was not in the USA), a filthy, greasy electric hotplate was delivered along with an electric kettle after 3 days. As we were staying for 12 nights we were still only given one towel each for the duration of our stay. There were no allowances made for a longer stay. We have found the experience of this particular apartment not to be in the spirit of AIRBNB.
