PadSplit: Rooms for rent

Honestly, regretting how I spent the amount of money I did on renting a tiny room with a ridiculous amount of drama and constant thefts arguments and disputes when I could’ve just stayed at a shelter or something. I had a roommate that has codes to all the rooms (PadSplit support confirmed this shouldn’t be the case) that our host empowered to be a live in landlord. They would linger outside doors and constantly be on the phone with our host over the smallest of things We had people vandalizing the ac unit, smoking weed in the house, sneaking people in, coming back after they were evicted, breaking things from fighting, loudly hooking up in the bathroom, the list goes on. The app itself crashes constantly and you’re better off using the desktop version of the website, but even then it’s a toss up if the right pages will load. You’re better off sleeping in a tent somewhere.

Unfortunately I am changing my positive review of PadSplit to a negative one because of the greedy nature of this company. I spent thousands with them over the last year and a half. Never had any complaints until now. My second time staying at a new PadSplit wasn’t great, loud roommates blasting music at 3am, smoking, leaving dishes and trash everywhere, etc so I moved out early and informed PadSplit of my issues there. I even had the room professionally cleaned just for them to still charge me an early move out fee. Like seriously? How greedy, where’s your compassion for the headache and stress I went through at that PadSplit? Now my balance is -82.86. I will not be paying it because I feel as though that’s absolutely ridiculous. If you’re thinking about getting a PadSplit, please rethink your decision. Even Airbnb would be a better choice. Honestly! Good luck

Honestly, it's a good idea until you move in. I didn't think that these were long term housing alternatives. However, it is widely used by others as permeate housing. Beware

Any time I need to be redirected to a website, it just returns me to the app, making it literally impossible to apply for any place. Unusable.

Won’t let me add income info to even start

I recommend this housing option for anyone who needs a quick plan out of any type of situation you are in but please be weary of the app rules and pad mates you choose to engage with. Run fast if on your first day they start telling you about other people that were before and just do not trust anyone really. Keep to yourself. I deal with the master bedroom pad mate who thinks because he has the pad mate hosts personal number he can regulate and break rules also because he makes money. Be mindful of who you engage with and if they are toxic you should leave before they start to mess with you. When you come in inspect the whole house because my pad mates planted things in the house to see if I would clean it just to mess with me but I did because I read the rules. If they leave their items out don’t even fret or Take pictures just throw it away good condition or not because they should know better. All of a sudden doorknobs will get “loose” just be careful people are weird and do not trust everyone.

I actually really like my Room Mates, I don’t want to change houses, but it’s my first day and there’s already no hot water for any of us downstairs. Besides Maintenance, I really enjoy the area I chose- the house- and I love that I get along with all of these strangers so far right off the Bat.

This company is a big fat joke. Their customer service is trash and they should not even exist. My experience with them was horrible and very disheartening. They wouldn’t listen to anything you had to say, but would believe anything someone told them concerning you. The living conditions that they have people living in and expect you to continue on living their. There’s a lot of dysfunctional people that they allow to live in these places. It’s extremely scary and dangerous.

Best app for affordable housing. Forget the weekly motel, and choose PadSplit

Everything appears to be Exactly as Stated. Enjoying doing Business so far. Enjoying the Experience so far also. Thanks PadSplit.
