Enjoyed a weekend at Alejandro’s place.
I knocked off a star due to unclear directions from the host. Prior to arrival was advised to read all house rules and check in messages. Upon arrival I followed the instructions from the host and ended up being the quote opposite. We were told the studio was on the right of the house, it ended up being on the left. We were advised to park on the left when there was a parked car already. If we parked there we’d obviously be blocking the car. But did so anyway because i was following the directions since the car could maneuver it’s way out. I also did not receive the code to the studio in his welcome message. Sent a message and he was quick to respond with the code. The wifi PW wasn’t working. Had to message back and forth about the wifi PW working. It ended up being an entirely different wifi router than what was listed inside the studio and the hosts listing. The studio came fully equipped with essentials and was fully renovated. There were rules on the wall about parking and the map on the wall was the quit opposite of what the host messaged me. On the day of checkout we received a message early morning that we needed to move our car because we’re blocking the car on the left side. On the night prior to checking out, there were two cars parked- one on both sides. Whichever one we picked we’d be blocking both but again made an effort to make room for either car to get out. The couch ended up being a pull out type bed. I pulled out the bed and it ended up being dirty with some grass, chip crumbs and an open plastic utensils bag hiding on the side. I messaged the host and didn’t want to be charged for an extra cleaning fee especially that it wasn’t my mess. I obviously cleaned it off and didn’t want to use that part of the couch/bed. For a cleaning fee if $50 don’t think they did a good job of being thorough especially that I had to clean it up myself. He advised that he’d be waiving the dog fee since I mentioned the mess which was cool and appreciated. Going forward even though we’re was some unclear directions id stay again. The location of the studio was close to everything. Minor errors that he could fix for future other guests’ stays. Think the cleaning fee should be a bit lowered but that’s my opinion due to what I experienced.
