We booked the apartment as a first get away since travel restrictions were lifted. The apartment itself is clean and looks like the photos with great views and is very conveniently located for the beach and local attractions. Unfortunately we were not able to enjoy the apartment to its full potential. The apartment below ours had building work from Tuesday to Friday of our stay from 8am-4pm. The entire flat had been gutted with drilling into the ceiling from the early hours. This made any relaxation throughout the trip impossible without being forced to leave.
We contacted the host about this issue which he was unfortunately unable to resolve whilst we were there.
My personal opinion is that Igor should have been aware that such extensive work was going to take place directly beneath the apartment whilst renting it out at a premium rate. The apartment should not have been rented out during this time, and a refund should clearly have been offered because of this. Instead we were forced to seek a refund through Airbnb after the holiday.
Despite this, Igor declined to give any refund and was not at all sympathetic, suggesting we should book a private house next time.
This suggests to me that he cares more about the money than the guest's experience, and his own reputation. I cannot recommend a stay here. My other Airbnb reviews have always been fair and I have never requested a refund after a stay before.
