I understand the owner is new to Airbnb market and just started and that’s might be the reason the place is lacking some details that you would expect on experienced and comfortable rental place. Small stuff like having paper towels, napkins, table place mats, drinking glass coasters etc.
The place was marketed as the one that having AC and that was important to us. But, in reality, they have small portable AC downstairs and that does not cool the place other then living room. Bedrooms did not have AC or ceiling fans and was very hot and stuffy and even opened windows didn’t help!
Also, I see they invested in new outside porch furniture, which was nice, but we could not enjoy it because floor was covered in black mold/moss that was both extremely unattractive and dangerous to step on as it made porch so much more
Slippery. I slipped and almost fall couple times. Simple pressure washing would do the job or cleaning and fresh coat of paint.
Downstairs bathroom sink did not work, the pipes was not even connected. That was the reason we choose the place with downstairs bathroom so our 80 years old father could use it without climbing upstairs to wash hands or brush teeth.
There was washer/dryer in the basement, but not even small container of detergent. Those small things you would expect to make place comfortable and welcoming.
The host was pretty responsive, but we feel she provided bare minimum information and didn’t take time to explain better, in more details or provide extra information that visitors to the new place would really appreciate. As we say in US she did NOT go extra mile to make our stay more pleasant or enjoyable.
Overall, the place has good potential, but owners would need to invest more time and efforts to make is better place for next guests.
