Pretty disappointed in this place. I felt tricked by the photos-it seemed clean, vibrant, and more spacious in the photos but turned out to be very small, dark, and worst, was very dirty.

I think that there were people staying immediately before we arrived and no cleaning service had been hired, because it was truly filthy.

Garbage cans were filled when we arrived, dishwasher packed with dirty dishes, couch had various stains etc, blankets haphazardly strewn onto the coffee table.

Also, it was super hard to sleep because there were running kids in the apartment above. I really wish Mike had mentioned this in the apartment listing, it is something that guests should be warned of.

There was also no nice note left from Mike, no treats or coffee, no neighborhood guide, truly nothing hospitable or welcoming to guests.

Perhaps my friends and I have been spoiled with amazing hosts and accommodation on airbnb, but we were super super disappointed.

Overall, a negative experience. I really cannot get past the filth of this place. It's as if absolutely no effort was put in to getting the place ready for us.
