We came to take a short vacation from NY and we decided to stay at Rachel’s apartment which was really pretty in the pictures . However when we arrived, we were a bit disappointed about how the quality of the apartment was. The first thing we noticed was that the floor of the apartment wasn’t cleaned to the point where it was impossible for us to walk bare foot. The bathroom sink was clogged so the water wouldn’t go down making it hard for us to wash up. There was also a limited supply of cooking equipment: 1 frying pan and 2 pots. The supplies were old and overused which made it more difficult to cook.
Another thing was that before we came to the apartment, the host sent us an instruction message. The message informed us that the apartment has high speed WiFi which we looked forward to due to having work and school on the computer. However when we connected to the WiFi, it didn’t work at all. We weren’t able to get any work done do to the WiFi not loading.
Even thought we had these concerns, the location of the apartment was convenient. It was close to stores and restaurants which we were happy about. The apartment is also very spacious and bright. The host was very easy to contact. When we had a problem during check in, the host came right away to help us.
