This was hands down the worst AirBnb experience I have ever had. And I’ve stayed at many AirBnbs over the years, all over the world.
Here’s the bad:
This is not an entire place - They have advertised this as an entire place, but it’s actually an attic room with a shared bathroom in the main part of the house. It should not be listed as an entire place.
The bathroom situation - The bathroom is in the main part of the house. You have to go down two flights of stairs to the other side of the house, and then up one more, to access the bathroom. To get to the bathroom you have to walk right through the kitchen. This wouldn’t be a big deal before COVID, but when I went to use the bathroom they were not wearing masks in the house, even though I was. It was very uncomfortable and felt reckless and extremely risky regarding COVID.
Sheets were dirty - When I got ready to go to bed, much to my horror I found hairs in the sheets, including what looked like pubic hairs. They also smelled musky. It was gross.
No real acoustic separation - There is hardly any acoustic separation between the attic room and the main house. Quiet hours are supposed to be from 10p-7a, but the hosts were talking and being extremely loud until past 2a on a Sunday night! It was so incredibly rude. I hardly got any sleep, which I wasn’t happy about considering I paid $100/night to stay there.
The ceilings - the ceilings aren’t 6’ tall like they described. They are only 6’ tall in the center of the rooms. You have to do a strange contortion to travel through the space. Not good for tall people.
The good:
* The host seemed nice.
* The bungalow are gardens are beautiful. The spaces are artistically decorated and have a cozy feel.
* the attic room has a separate entrance with a keypad entry.
* the host took *some* precautions regarding COVID, including hand sanitizer and apparently the mail bathroom was reserved for me during my stay.
