I along with my partner stayed at this Airbnb for our first ever US visit. To be honest the moment we walked into the apartment we were quite underwhelmed, that quickly turned into disappointment as we further discovered the things, not exactly the way we expected
The bathroom and kitchen were not clean, the bath we had to clean ourselves, the cabinets under the sinks both kitchen and bathroom were cluttered and very messy, with important things like shampoo or kitchen sponge missing, but that wasn’t all
The microwave was so dirty that we never used it, perhaps it wasn’t cleaned since someone last lived there, stove top needed a wipe too
The bed wasn’t the one shown in the pictures, it was some uncomfy metal bed instead, I believe that was unfair as the bed I saw in pictures while booking appeared comfortable enough
The fan and the light in sitting room stays on together, it wasn’t possible to keep fan on at night unless lights stayed on too, can’t tell what was the logic behind such arrangement !!
The aircon was very loud, cannot watch tv if aircon is on as you hear nothing, and it was too hot to turn aircon off and watch a movie, we got told off by the host for high volume as some audibly hypertensive neighbours complained and we almost never watched tv again ..
Overall very disappointed, it was warm in New York and not enough cooling, only noise
My partner has bad back ache after sleeping in that bed for few nights .. we have stayed at Airbnb apartments before in various cities, never had any issue until this one
This place needs a through clean, get rid of unwanted clutter and organise it so it easy to use by overseas visitors, last thing we wanted after intercontinental flights was scrub a bath before use especially after paying for it to be in order !!
Good points in the end however, rapid host response and ease of check in, that’s about it.
