Horrible Experience/ Few minutes in, We had to leave and book a hotel!

Very disappointed with our booking. Upon arriving to this place, we decided to leave immediately because of the issues we saw. The house is in a weird neighborhood with back to back night clubs, mostly occupied by college students. Horrible loud music with strangers knocking at our doors to help them pick their clothes from the house balcony. We notified the owner that we couldn't stay here, we requested our refund that he refused to give us. We ended up booking a nice hotel in a safe neighborhood. This home is meant for noisy college students and not visitors who are looking for some quiet time. Very sketchy!
