Distance from London Excel

No signs identifying Austin David Apartments, only OXYGEN branded on the front of the building. No aircon. Apartment needs some attention. Pictures have been provided to assistant.

Het appartement verdient een goede opknap en schoonmaakbeurt met wat reparatie hier en daar

7.0

De ligging was perfect. We hadden congres in excel.

Het was niet echt schoon. En er was eea kapot. Bv de temperatuur van douchewater was niet te regelen. De deur naar het terras was moeilijk te openen. De ventilator in woonkamer was kapot en het was heel warm. Een lamp bij het bed deed het niet. Gordijnen hingen los.

The Location is Perfect

Could do with a lick of paint and a few blinds changing

Owner didn’t provide entry and refuse refund. It doesn’t even make sense

1.0

SCAM!!! Host did not give me any information of how to access the unit. And host if you want to reply on this show proof that you did send us any details on how to access the uni. The worse part is they don’t want to refund money when they failed to provide entry or service.

Currently fighting booking.com to contact him and he is evading them! This is a scam a sad Airbnb man trying to run a predatory behavior. I’ve reported them to both the USA AND UK consumer bureau protection agencies and if you enter the is trap I suggest you report as well and attach photos evidence. That’s the only way to scrub booking.com of these cheap change hustlers that just cannot run an honest business.
