The apartment was in a great location, close to restaurants and bars and a short taxi ride to downtown. The apartment was clean but it is an older building. There was a strong smell of cologne as if a bottle had been spilled somewhere. We never could get the tv to work.
Unfortunately on night #2 we had a man standing in our bedroom at 3am. He obviously had a key and let himself in and was walking into our room calling out "Hello". I let him know we had rented the apartment for the weekend, he apologized, said he was the landlord and left. Quite unnerving to say the least.
On night #1, there was a "backyard BBQ" in the parking lot of the apartment that went on past 4am the next morning. There was a complete band with drums and a microphone for the multiple singers. We expected noise from bars but didn't expect the parking lot party all night or the visitor.
Blake was apologetic and offered an additional free night but we had had enough. A refund for the night the man showed up in our bedroom would have been nice.
This was our first airbnb experience, we will definitely think twice before choosing this option again.
