Dan’s place has an excellent location and is a large space. The double bed is very comfortable and more than enough for 2 people. Dan is a wonderful host and very responsive to our messages, questions, and issues. Kitchen was well stocked and there is a large bathroom with a separate toilet area. There were 5 of us and we stayed for a week.
Some cons during our stay....
The room was not ready when we arrived at 7:30-8pm. Dan was very apologetic and it was semi-finished after we arrived. The room also did not really match the photos provided on the listing- not sure if it’s a different space or just redecorated since the listing was made. Furniture wasn’t totally the same and wall colors were totally different.
We had 5 people and the sleeping situation was not ideal. To note, there are not 5 separate beds. There are 3 beds: a nice double bed, a futon (which sleeps 2 tightly and is very firm) and a single, thin mattress pad that was balanced on a folded out ottoman. The ottoman had a large stain. I did not sleep well the first night because it was not sturdy. The single mattress did not have a fitted sheet either at first and that was also stained.
We were not sleeping well the first two nights and requested another single bed or air stress. Dan quickly brought a very nice and thick single mattress that saved the trip. We ended up having one smaller person sleep on the couch, one on the futon with the original single mattress to help with the firmness, 2 in the nice double bed, and one on the floor with the thick mattress. Dan was more than willing to help with everything, but the original sleeping situation was not ideal for 5 adults.
In addition, the bathroom does not have more than a generic liquid soap so bring shampoo/conditioner and any sort of lotion you need. The washer also requires some detergent, which we brought to use.
Ultimately, the location, large space, and Dan’s willingness to help was the best part of our stay. Sleeping situation was not ideal. For the price we paid, it was more than enough since we explored all day.
