My fiancé and I stayed for a mere two hours before leaving because of many reasons.
When we arrived the first thing we noticed was a strong smell of marijuana smoke in the building, which continued into the apartment. My fiancé has asthma and cannot stay in a place that smells strongly of smoke. Then shortly after we entered, I saw a large centipede-like insect crawl out from under the refrigerator. By that point we were starting to get turned off by everything that we saw.
The towels and bed sheets did not smell fresh, and had a nasty odor to them. The bottle of dish soap was nearly empty, and we had intended to cook and use dishes while we were there. Then when we tried to connect to the WiFi, it connected but there was no internet service, and we had planned to do work during our stay, which would have been impossible.
After all of this, we made the decision to leave immediately and stay in a hotel instead. The next morning, I received a message from the hosts, asking me in an accusatory way if my phone alarm had been going off all night (which was impossible, and goes to show how thin the walls are there), and also felt extremely rude. At that point I messaged them back, and explained what we had seen at their place and why we had left. They pushed back on all of my complaints, including seeing the insect near the fridge, smelling smoke upon entering, and even lied about the soap bottle—claiming it was half full. They proceeded to refute anything else I said, saying “that’s impossible.” Why would I make any of this up?
STAY AWAY!
