RENTER BEWARE!!! Roaches in my unit (unit#2)! I spoke with the neighbor in unit #1 who also found a roach in his silverware drawer! Additionally, there was a sewage odor emminating from the bathroom. I took down my neighbors phone number to cohaborate. We took pictures of the roaches too. Quick note, Airbnb agreed to refund me and canceled my reservation, but Miguel, the host, has not cooperated with the refund and now Airbnb appears to be renegging on that promise even though I was forced to change accommodations last minute at great expense. Final tidbit, Miguel wrote this to me prior to me leaving this review. Take note of the implicative veiled threat about him not leaving me a negative review on my page. Huh?! I'm not the one operating substandard housing!!!
"Good morning Brian! Oh no Im sorry to hear it. Springtime down here is very heavy with bugs, they can come in very quickly through the door even when entering and exiting the apartment sometimes but if needed we can always come in and fumigate right away. No worries we will look at the documentation with airbnb and process any appropriate refunds. I will not be leaving a review or any negative comments on your page as to honor a peaceful resolution between us. Thanks all the best."
P.S., still no refund. I'll be seeking legal remedy as well as reporting to the appropriate housing and legal authorities.
