Hi!
We are a family touring Asia for a year with 4 kids (now 6 months in). Although trying, we always found Airbnb too expensive compared to hotels and guesthouses. But now we arrived in Taiwan, and here we booked an apartment for 14 nights at a good rate. It's not our first ABB (we also hosted for a little while) but the first one in Asia.
When we got here, we found that there are no towels and no TP (listing has essentials included). When asked about towels, the answer was "sorry, we only provide paper towels". The listing has good marks and good reviews. Is it acceptable in some places that paper towels are an option? We have to go now and buy 6 towels and throw them out in 2 weeks?
