The host was lovely however I regret to say that the place was filthy. The cluttered kitchen had a layer of grime on everything, all the dishes and pots and pans looked dirty, the garbage pail in the kitchen hadn't been emptied, the box holding the paper towels was dusty and full of crumbs, and the tea kettle was so grungy that I didn't even want to touch it. The water in the bathroom sinks smelled like sulphur. The downstairs toilet was so noisy and running all night that it kept me up most of the night. It also wouldn't flush. The neighbors were noisy. While the host was slow to respond to all messages, apparently he was polite. However when I wrote him with my concerns, he replied a few days later, to simply thank me for the feedback, said he was working on the problem, with no apology for how horrible of a condition the apt. was in or the inconvenience of the noisy toilet keeping me up most of the night. I've stayed in a lot of rental apartments over the years, and I usually let stuff slide, but this was ridiculous, especially for the hefty price we paid for the place. And three of the beds are in the same room as the kitchen so I guess this is probably fine for a pack of students who want to party, but anyone else who expects a decent level of cleanliness may need to avoid this place. The photos I'm sharing are from the kitchen when we arrived.
