This was our first experience using Airbnb and we learned a lot. If your staying in a condo or apartment, you have things you can’t control with your neighbors and the complex.
Pros:
- The host was quick to respond to issues.
- Check in was a breeze.
- The unit is located close to a nice park, great restaurants and shopping.
- Appliances worked great (dishwasher needs to be secured to cabinets).
Here’s what we noted during our stay:
- Upstairs neighbors kid was running back and forth till midnight
- People didn’t cleanup after their pets
- Sometimes the main gate to the complex would work, most of the time it didn’t
- The unit needs some maintenance and repair.
- Bed was uncomfortable
- The complex itself is rundown and the unit itself was not thoroughly cleaned before we checked in, e.g., garbage left in drawers from previous guests, moldy shower curtain, ashtray full of cigarette butts outside on patio…
