0. I paid more than 550,000 KRW which is around 500 USD for 2 nights. I am writing this review because I felt the flat and service were below expectations even without considering the higher price due to the holiday price surge.
1. Parking
The parking space itself was hard to say unreasonable. However, if you lock the address in google map and try to get instructions, you will end up wandering around the neighborhood with extremely narrow roads, until you finally stop your car somewhere and decide to locate the parking building by foot first.
Plus, it took slightly more than 5 minutes to get to the apartment on foot. It was the longest way between the parking space and the apartment of all the Airbnb I booked during the trip.
2. Room
1) Kitchen
The kitchen is equipped with basic equipment. However, I wonder if they are managed properly. Inside the teapot (or the machine used to boil water), the iron coil was exposed so that it is in contact with the water that is to be boiled. The problem was that the coil was seriously corroded and I felt not safe to use the machine.
2) Towel
I booked for 2 nights. The Airbnb policy seems to be to provide 2 large and 2 small towels during the stay that does not exceed a certain duration of stay (7 maybe?). However, it lacked 2 towels and we asked for 2 more. Laura, the manager, not the host, promised that it would be delivered later that day but it didn't. When I addressed the problem to her through WhatsApp, she just said that it would be rendered the day after and tossed me the host's contact, which I already have of course, and stopped talking. So I tried to get the host's help. He made apologies and promised the towels to be delivered after 10 am the day after. But it didn't until 3 pm. Towels finally came around 4 pm. Although we asked for 2 small towels, 1 large and small towel came :( Yes, towels are just towels. But I don't think I have to go through all this on the last day of 2019.
3) Bathroom
The bathroom condition was fine, except that hot water did not work after one person took shower although the boiler machine seemed to work (Well, the machine said so). After all this fuss with the towel the first day and since this problem started the second day, we just endured the inconvenience rather than trying to fix this since it would be more troublesome.
3. ETC
No elevator in the building and the room was located on 2F
4. I know this might not be a big deal for some people. However, this room was the most expensive one during our 21 nights of holidays in Europe, and I could not any reason for such.
