We were so excited about this apartment, it was in a great area, the right price for our trip, and had everything we look for.
The Pros: location, communication, parking, and a really nice view from the patio
The Cons: Cleanliness, quality of essentials
We are not super germaphobes, our house doesn’t look like a museum, and we wouldn’t expect an Airbnb to either. Immediately upon entering, our shoes started sticking to the floor with every step. After looking around we grabbed the broom and swiffer and gave the floor a once over, not thinking too much about it. By the time we had finished the kitchen, the pad was black with dirt and grime. Then we started paying attention to some other things. There were hairs in the bedding and on the towels. (When I took off the pillow cases to wash them, the pillows were brown and dingy, like the ones in my grandmas closet.) There were crumbs all in the carpet in the bedroom. There were handprints on the wall. The dryer vent looked as if it had never been emptied. I could go on, and would post pictures if I was allowed. The condition we found the apartment in was unacceptable for any standard, much less one that advertises having a Covid enhanced cleaning. This was by far the worst stay I have ever had, and the only less than 5 star rating I have ever given on Airbnb.
