Several problems arose over the course of our two-days stay:
- neighbors intrusively bothering us with questions about our stay and accusing us for things which happened before our arrival ("When did you guys arrive? ... You must be the ones who made all the noise with the big party the night before.")
- a clugged toilet, the whole (master)-bedroom floor smelling like weed for the whole period of our stay, a half-empty whiskey bottle in a bedroom drawer and cigarette buds on the balcony (which is against the contract) originating from the guests before us
- airflow in the house is really uncomfortable not being controlled by a centralized AC leaving the lower bedroom too cold and the two upper ones way too warm especially during night
I'm not blaming the landlords for the guests before, but if I'm spending ~500$ per night (incl. all charges) I don't want to have to deal with all the mentioned issues. The communication was quick and the landlord offered us another cleaning crew or switching the houses since they are operating several in the area - but only after (!!) moving in. If I spend less than two days this is not really an option especially since the owner knew about the situation of the house before we arrived (as she told us). And considering all the problems we had to deal with over the two days, she didn't even offer any refund. For this price one would easily find a decent hotel with daily room service in downtown Seattle.
