It was the worst experience I've had on Airbnb and here's why.
- The posting says Times Square and it is absolutely not near times square, it is 2 miles away from times square.
- To pickup the key, you have to signup on a different website and walk approx 1 mile to physically pick them up (before 7pm) and then return them to the same place.
- When you get to the apartment, the apartment smells very bad, the toilet is very dirty, there are 2 more people who live in the same apartment and share that bathroom.
- Your room is carved out of temporary wall in the living room, light from the living room goes into your room even after you fully shut the door and when Kai's room mates (One Indian guy and one Asian guy) are watching TV, you can hear it loud and clear.
- The bed wasn't made and the bed sheet/blanket on the bed were used.
- There were no towels to even wipe your hands with.
With all that said, Kai was responsive to my text messages and he asked his room mate Kush to laundry the blanket and bed sheet upon my request, that took a good 1.5 hours but at last I did get clean bed sheet to sleep on. But still no towels, dirty bathroom and all of the above.
Would I stay at this place again? No.
