We had 1 shared bathroom. I believe 3 rooms share the bathroom. The description does not state this. We were informed in a private message after our payment become nonrefundable.
The building would not meet fire safety standards in the US. The only way we would be able to escape the building in a fire is the front gate. There is no fire escape ladder, and the window in our bedroom opened to the common area. The front gate has a padlock that has to be unlocked with a key from the inside. The AirBnB host asked us to lock the gate every time we leave. If a roommate wants to stay inside while you go out, make sure to leave the key with your roommate so they are not trapped in the building in case of a fire or other emergency!!!!! THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT. The building is stone but has wood paneling on the ceilings.
We arrived 3 hours early and wanted to sit in a tucked away corner of the common area until check-in time. A woman came up to us, said she was the owner, and told us we couldn’t sit in the common area and we had to leave the building. She said we couldn’t leave our bags at the Airbnb and and offered no solution for our bags.
