The room at Danie’s place was nice and quite comfortable. The co-host, Sandy, met with us to hand over the keys. Sandy doesn’t live at the apartment but was very friendly and flexible with check in time. She mentioned that Danie was away and we never saw him for the duration of our stay.
We were also very surprised to find out at our arrival that there was someone living in the room next door to us, when this was not specified on the listing nor did we see any reviews mentioning this. We felt uncomfortable as the roommate didn’t introduce themselves so we had no idea who were staying with. We messaged Danie about the roommate and we didn’t get a response. He did however offer us a refund for 1 night which we appreciated however we also would have appreciated some sort of acknowledgment or explanation.
All in all, the room was nice and location was quite convenient (8-10 min walk to a subway station). However, the unexpected roommate and lack of communication soured the experience.
