Liked: Communication

Disliked: Cleanliness

Host responded quickly to questions. I was not happy with the cleanliness of the apartment. Shower curtain filthy, sheets stained,bathroom walls were not wiped, large stain on sofa. No effort to clean the balcony chairs filled with spider web. Kitchen was clean with sufficient equipment. Lots of potential, would not stay again due to cleanliness. When brought to host attention he asked what I was talking about as he said the apartment was clean. Grocery store very close. Extremely pet friendly.
