First and last time on Airbnb.
After placing the 2 night booking the owner suggested we pay more to secure the booking as “they prefer guests who stay longer” (They advertised min 2 nights stay)
or they were happy to take the booking “if you are willing to pay a little more to compensate”. We ended up paying an extra $174 for the 2 nights (total $784) instead of the original $604 that was quoted.
On arrival we found there was no TV, no bedside table or lamps in either bedroom and pillows that had seen better days. The shower screen to the main ensuite leaked all over the floor and mosaic floor tiles were missing. There was no hanging space or drawers for guests.
The main venetian blind to the living room was broken and needed to be strung up to get the balcony door open. Several light globes were blown.
No more Airbnb for us!
