Danna is a wonderfully detailed host. I was told absolutely EVERYTHING I needed before arriving, including that there were kids ages 2 and 4 living right above. Danna made sure I was equipped with all that I needed before arriving and made herself available on the first night in case I ran into any issues.
That being said, while I am grateful for the roof I had over my head, the screaming and thumping and running and crying from the kids above pushed my patience level to the limit. The running overhead feels as if it’s right next to you, the walls are that thin. Laying in bed their stomps felt like they were running past my ears. It’s not much better in the living room either because the kids seem to enjoy the run of the house so there isn’t much difference from one room to the next. Obviously they are kids. You can’t get too upset at them. And you can’t expect a noise complaint to be accommodated (not that I made one) because they are young and having fun and telling them not to do that in their own home is unfair. Just be aware that if you plan on sleeping past 8am or enjoy pure silence at night, this may not be the place for you. I found myself having to play my own music at a decent level in order to block out the annoyance of hearing kids go at it for hours.
I want you to understand that I did not NOT enjoy my stay but it should also be noted that I ran into 2 spiders during my week and a half and almost every room has cobwebs in the top corners. It wasn’t awful, like a place that hasn’t been cleaned in years. But it was noticeable and made me worry about how recently the place had been cleaned.
All that being said, I was given a roof over my head at an affordable price for over a week. I can’t leave this review without giving my thanks. I will walk away with more positive memories than negative. Dannas hospitality outweighs any negatives I’ve listed. Having a kind host who communicates as detailed as she does is a breath of fresh air. Not everyone is like that. If I could give 4 and a half stars I would. Thank you Danna
