BEWARE $150 DOG CHARGE: People above us had a dog, and were annoyingly bouncing a ball across the floor on and off during the day. WE got charged the $150 pet fee, instead of our upstairs neighbor. Which is funny since my husband is highly allergic to anything with fur or feathers and was relieved when the building sign said "no pets". How do you prove you didn't bring a dog? I'm not paying for an allergy test to prove we don't have and never have had a dog! The booking wouldn't let us back in to dispute the charge, so we texted the owner directly and he ghosted us. Don't recommend booking from this owner.
However, if you can prove you don't have a pet and don't mind noise from the upstairs neighbor (floor is thin enough to hear voices, but not make out what they are saying) the place was clean and functional. It had a very "2nd home" vibe. For example there was a crack in the bathtub and the faucets were really dated and the kitchen table surface was really scratched. Our door code didn't work and the owner was really responsive and stayed on the line until it worked. (Code was suppose to work after 4pm, but it was after 5pm that it actually worked. Maybe a time difference thing?) There was hardly any toilet paper and we ran out the last morning and couldn't locate any in any of the cupboards or drawers so had to leave early the last day to find a bathroom. It was adequate, if you don't have noisy neighbors that weekend and don't mind paying for someone else's pet fee.
