Overall this place came together thanks to the attentiveness of our host. The place was very dirty upon arrival. I called the host who was super helpful and understanding of the uncleanliness issue. He refunded the cleaning fee and an additional portion of our stay due to the issue we encountered as we should not have required 4 adults cleaning for over an hour to get the apartment up to par. He also came by, while we were out, to fix an issue with the AC.
Overall, I have a hard time giving this property a 5 star review, due to the dirtiness, despite the rebate we received. The rental is quite tired and could use some interior and exterior TLC. The host was very accommodating during our stay. I'm sure he will take up the issues we encountered with his property manager/cleaner and ensure this doesn't happen for future renters.
