Geneva hit 90 degrees each of the five early September days we visited. The afternoon my husband and I arrived, the apartment was unbearably hot. Of course, there was no air-conditioning, but we expected at least a fan, so we wrote immediately about the need for one.
The host's responses to our repeated requests were ridiculous: it was cool last week; just open the windows; maybe the concierge can find you an old one and bring it to you (he never did); buy your own fan; fans don't help anyway.
Blinds down and windows open, we suffered through three hot sweaty nights filled with the noise of traffic, ambulances, dogs, etc.
Host finally brought a fan by on day 4 after she returned from her holiday abroad. With it, the last two nights were comfortable enough to sleep. It would have been so easy to make our entire stay more enjoyable.
We requested recompense, but did not get it. Her excuse was that there was no way she could have known it was going to be hot. This is unacceptable since Geneva had already had record summer heat, and, in previous reviews, guests had suggested the need for the fan we had to beg for.
