TL, DR -- Misrepresentation of actual listing. Photos do not reflect unit. Amenities are missing or beyond usable.
Pictures for Sofia Cabin are not accurate and are of another cabin. He actually has the same pictures for many of his different listings. Amenities listed were not present (incl a dishwasher or BBQ utensils). Horrid conditions - dirty, run down cabin. Would especially not stay here during COVID, as high touch surfaces had visible grime. He became hostile/began yelling when we departed early and contacted Airbnb.
Booked this through Airbnb w/ a no cancellation policy in effect even during COVID. Masood personally greeted us around 8:30pm (his listing stated check in was up until 9pm). When he showed us the room, he wasn't wearing a mask despite us both wearing one.
FRAUDULENT POSTINGS / BAIT AND SWITCH: As other reviews on Airbnb have stated, he does not post accurate pictures of the units he rents. He takes pictures of nicer, more updated cabins. The Sofia cabin in the pictures had 4x the space of the unit we were provided. In the pictures his listing, there was a wide, spacious living room and bedroom - in reality, the "living room" was the size of a small kitchen and in the bedroom, you could reach the walls lying in bed. Clearly deceptive. There was no dishwasher as posted, so we had no way to sanitize the filthy plate ware/silverware.
DIRTY UNIT: There were dead bugs in the fridge, dirt all over the bath mat and there was noticeable grime all over each light switch, despite his listing agreeing to Airbnb's "Enhanced Clean" "5 step cleaning process" which includes cleaning all high touch surfaces, especially during COVID, that clearly looks like it's been that way for years. When I ran an electrostatic sprayer on the switches, a whole trail of wet grime came down. Utensils had noticeable stains, making it clear during COVID especially, now was not a time to be using any of his belongings. There was no dishwasher as promised in the listing, but there was a very used and dirty sponge, that he probably used to clean the whole unit. The shower was horrendous, had a dirty bathmat and we didn't use it at all, while the bedroom had a musty smell of body odor that didn't go away after spraying Lysol or having windows open for an hour.
HOSTILE HOST: We contacted Airbnb to help resolve the issue and checked out as soon as it was daylight (after a nearly 5 hour drive, we were too tired to talk to him and he was unavailable in the morning). Upon check out, he immediately began yelling at us saying "I know what you're doing. I'm reporting you to Airbnb!", as if we were making up our concerns. He offered to put us into a nicer room by the river (which likely was the actual cabin pictured), but we didn't feel safe staying w/ someone who was actively yelling, accusing us and refusing to even listen to our concerns without angry deflection about how he spent lots of money upgrading the cabin and he paid $4k to have pictures of the cabin. He then stated that "it's not fair to me you guys checked in late" - I guess this shows how lazy he is and really wanted to be going to bed early? We checked in 30 minutes earlier than 9pm close.
Stay somewhere that treats you not just like a human being, but as not just someone they can nickel and dime for profit.
