DO NOT waste your hard earned money on this place unless they update their listing and say we’ve fixed all these issues listed. I’ve stayed in a lot of Airbnbs and even older ones, this was the worst I’ve ever encountered. It was disgusting. I don’t understand how there are so many good reviews. The only thing good thing about it was the 3 min walk to the beach from the front door and the host responds in a timely manor even though they may or may not fix your problem. If we hadn’t wasted over $700 on this place we would have left sooner. We ended up leaving only a day earlier because I couldn’t handle all the bugs after all the other issues there were. Here’s a list of the issues we had.
1. Gross, stained furniture and pillows (which they did offer to have cleaned but after we had been there for 3 days already so what’s the point) Then the last day they offered to buy a new sofa lol I actually laughed at that because it was after I contacted Airbnb about how bad their place is and requested a partial refund. They don’t give refunds btw or even partial ones if it’s in bad condition for you.
2. Nasty floors. The day we got in we took off our shoes and our feet were black from walking around so they definitely don’t mop. Found random hair on the baseboards so not sure they they even vacuum. Baseboards were mostly dirty and so were the walls.
3. One bedroom is always warm and doesn’t cool down like the rest of the apartment. They supposedly sent someone to fix it while we were gone but it wasn’t fixed, still warm in there.
4. Beds and pillows were terrible. This I can deal with if the rest of the things weren’t so bad. I’ve stayed in plenty of hotels and airbnbs with subpar beds.
5. Ants in bathrooms, living room and roach getting eaten by ants. Didn’t even bother telling them about this bc I didn’t want them spraying toxic bug spray while we were there.
6. Mold in the kitchen under cabinets and in corners.
7. They only provide one roll of paper towels and like two rolls of toilet paper so you have to buy your own. Two hand towels and 2 normal size towels and 2 towels that were like kid size towels. So you need bring beach towels and reg towels if you don’t want to have to wash so often.
8. Only two extra trash bags. So if you stay more than 3-4 days you might need to buy more.
9. The communication is weird. You never know if your talking to the owner or the management company. You message them something and then someone answers back like they haven’t read your previous message that answered their questions.
10. Dirty dishes in cabinets which is gross but I always wash the dishes anyway before using just to be safe and there’s no dishwasher so might as well buy paper and plastic to use for convenience.
11. Smelled like old church camp bunk rooms and looked like a dirty motel so if your going for that vibe then this is your place.
Do yourself a favor and pick a different Airbnb or hotel to stay in. After that stay I’m done with Airbnb for awhile. I’m sorry to say this is the worst review I’ve ever had to leave. I hate that I even had to write this to warn others. But they need to fix their issues before other people stay there. We stayed in Apt 2. Btw there’s another apartment attached that apparently has had issues bc I just saw bad reviews listing the same issues we had. Wish I would have seen those before I booked.
