Be very cautious with this booking- the owner has hired a property manager and it was the worst travel experience of my life.
Doors didn’t lock, ac unit didn’t function properly, countless items broken and useless, stained linens, towels and rugs, and no hot water in the shower. Extremely hard to get In contact with host - had to call the police and a lock smith our self. Whole situation was ridiculous.. I would not recommend booking.
Let me start by saying I’m a super host for an Airbnb in MN and an avid traveler who uses Airbnb a lot. This ruined my whole trip experience and cost my best friend and I a lot of money and time we’ll never get back in a new city we wanted to explore away from our kids.
Upon arrival cleaners were still in there an hour after check in. The ac unit barely cooled it bc it’s in the glass sliding door with 1-2 inch gaps, allowing bugs to get in, and then the door can’t lock. The main door to the Airbnb didn’t lock so we had to bring our luggage with us to eat dinner. I left airbnb to get money out and my girlfriend locked the Airbnb from inside the unit and got locked in bc the deadbolt was broken. We tried calling host and maintenance to condo for FOUR HOURS no answer/ response. Had to call police who sent a locksmith. Locksmith said it was completely broken and needed a new deadbolt. After we called Airbnb support to find a new place to stay the host finally called us back 6 hrs later.. was rude and yelled at us for the situation, never said sorry .. didn’t believe us until locksmith got on the phone. Then he tried to not pay the locksmith. Just a cheap asshole..
The extra fan was broken so we were uncomfortably hot. Hair dryer didn’t work. We waited an hour between showers and didn’t have hot water. List goes on. It was just a crummy experience and since we spent the first day of our travels fixing the door we couldn’t see the city. Our next day was followed by finding a new place to stay.. stole two days of our Seattle time bc then we left for Portland.
I didn’t like how you couldn’t contact the host directly, only through Airbnb messaging, which I’ve never seen before. And when I booked I was communicating with Lauren the owner, but then at check in it went to this Ken guy, who you couldn’t get ahold of.
I wouldn’t stay here. If you want the views, book a different unit in the condo.
