Let me start by saying the house is exactly what it shows in the pictures. It’s cute and cozy. Furthermore, it’s in the GHETTO and the place was EXTREMELY dirty. If I could have rated the cleanliness with zero stars I would. I was surprised because every review said it was very clean. Come to find out that his previous guest had a 2 month stay. Needless to say everything from the bathroom toilets, showers, floors, microwave to the stainless dishwasher and fridge was disgustingly dirty. I did reach out to the host informing him of the state that the house was in and that I wouldn’t mind cleaning it but I deserve my cleaning fee refunded bc I paid for the place to be cleaned upon arrival. He got very defensive as if I didn’t provide proof of my findings. He did take time out and come to the house to TRY to fix the issue. His fixing the issue was by half way cleaning with vinegar. Who cleans and disinfects with vinegar? I have a cleaning service and know the ins and outs of cleaning and what products to use etc. so using vinegar was unacceptable and still looked dirty. He did ask how can we fix the situation after he attempted to clean and I told him I would like my cleaning fee back. I was told no and to leave his property and call Airbnb for a refund because he didn’t want the headache!!! That’s exactly what I did!!! Once I left he called me back to offer me to stay there and get back my cleaning fee. Absolutely not! Not after being treated the way me and my guest where treated and kicked out the property.
My experience was horrible and the worst experience I’ve had with renting on Airbnb. I hope he learns a lesson on how to treat your guest and actually hire a real cleaning crew!
