Nice to meet you!
It's Joyce, your host.
Our appartment is located in a vibrant central area in Beirut. In the same time, the street is very calm. Everything around is walkable and the access to the main highway for taxis is very easy. It is a very comfy one bedroom, 2 full baths open spaced appartment.
The Space
The space is fully renovated and styled by us. It is an open-plan apartment. A vibrant and lively street is located a 10-minute stroll away, with many snacks and restaurants.
While the interior of the studio is clean, modern, and completely renovated from its original state, it is located in a standard older building. The exterior and neighborhood entryway display the unpolished, raw, and authentic character of the city. If you appreciate finding a functional, well-maintained space hidden inside a typical older neighborhood, this studio is a great fit.
☀️ Smart Solar Setup: Our 24/7 solar electricity seamlessly runs your lights and appliances. To optimize energy during daylight hours, you have full use of all amenities and multiple ACs. After sunset, the system transitions to a smart conservation mode, comfortably powering the bedroom AC unit alongside your lights overnight.
🚪 Smart Lock: Enjoy an easy arrival with seamless self-check-in.
Guest Access
Guests have full, exclusive access to the entire private studio to themselves. This includes the open-concept living and bedroom areas, a functional kitchen, and the rare convenience of both private full bathrooms.
Interaction with Guests
If you need information or any help, we will be very happy to meet you and assist with anything you need.
Other Things to Note
One thing to note is that the building is very old and dates back to the Civil War in Lebanon. The facade still shows the impacts of that war.
The building is an older, standard apartment building that reflects the unpolished architectural character of a traditional Beirut residential neighborhood. It sits in a quiet pocket just a 10-minute walk from the main Mar Mikhael live street. While the apartment inside is fully modernized, renovated, and chic, the exterior and street carry the city's raw, resilient soul. If you appreciate places with character, depth, and real stories, you will find this space unforgettable.
PLEASE REVIEW BEFORE BOOKING:
- GPS Jamming & Navigation Disclaimer: Due to current regional circumstances, ongoing GPS jamming and spoofing affect all navigation apps (like Google Maps or Waze) across the country, meaning the pinned address may show up inaccurately on your phone. Please message us directly through the app before you arrive so we can provide exact, manual navigation instructions. This situation is completely beyond our control and the country's control; we kindly ask that you remain patient and cooperative rather than letting navigation glitches cause frustration.
- Check-In & Support Hours: While we offer easy self-check-in via a smart lock, we do not support late-night physical check-ins. Our dedicated guest support and setup hours are strictly between 3:00 PM and 7:00 PM. We cannot come to the property or provide physical assistance after these hours. If you choose to check in late at night and experience any self-inflicted access issues, you will have to wait until our support window reopens the following morning.
- Seasonal Urban Pests Disclaimer: Due to the nature of an older building and the Mediterranean summer climate, insects and cockroaches can crawl indoors during the hot season (July-August). We treat and spray the property professionally and regularly; however, their presence is completely beyond our control and the control of the local municipality. If you are extremely sensitive to encountering typical seasonal city insects, we kindly suggest booking a modern high-rise instead.
- Property Condition & Damages: We pride ourselves on delivering the apartment to you in immaculate condition, and we expect our guests to treat it with the same care. Any lost items, broken amenities, or major structural/fabric tears (such as heavily damaged linens, stained upholstery, or broken fixtures) discovered after check-out will be formally documented, and we will deduct the cost of replacement or repair directly from your deposit through the Airbnb app.
- Staging & Decor Disclaimer: Some minor amenities, plants, linens, textiles, and decorative items featured in the listing photos are used for staging/presentation purposes only. While the core furniture, layout, and standard remain identical, specific styling accents and minor amenities may be updated, rotated, or differ slightly during your actual stay.
- Resource Usage Policy: Our 24/7 solar setup, Wi-Fi, and utilities are provided for your comfort and are digitally monitored via smart meters. We kindly ask for mindfulness—such as turning off ACs when windows are open. Please note that while Wi-Fi is consistently available, actual connection speeds depend on local network providers and are outside our control.
- The Perfect Hot Shower: To get maximum water pressure and instant heat, turn on the shower light switch located near the blue cabinet before entering. Once you turn on the faucet, please wait about 10 seconds for the hot water to reach the shower head before stepping in. To maintain optimal water pressure and drainage, please do not run the washing machine while using the shower, as running both at the same time can overwhelm the system.
- AC & Power Limitation: As noted, full use of appliances and multiple ACs is supported during daylight hours (max electric capacity is 30amps; if it goes above the breaker's capacity, it will trip and you will have a power outage till the system restarts, up to 30 minutes, if it gets really overloaded). After sunset, the solar capacity shifts to conservation mode, supporting only the single-bedroom AC unit overnight (sunset to sunrise), along with lights and Wi-Fi. If a single-room AC setup or power mindfulness is uncomfortable for you, please don't book.
