Pros: a/c, wifi, on-site parking, interesting location, washer/dryer in unit, and host clearly communicated the entry and location. We arrived late at night and the host was accommodating and nice.
Cons:
-poor lighting: few light switches turned on lights, lights were low, all lights in bedroom were unplugged
-unclean: toothpaste/soap was on the bathroom sink, tub had hair in it, opened food was left in fridge, visible dust on most tabletops/objects, spiderwebs in most corners, food splatter on ceiling, dirt such as dust and crumbs on floor.
-patchwork repairs: shower head was new but not properly secured to wall because it was loose and hanging away from the wall, shower curtain rod held together with tape and installed backwards so it didn't cover behind the showerhead, floating shelves tipping forward because not properly secured to wall.
-smoke smell: a smoke smell was ever present in the bathroom and would not go away even with a spray and cleaning.
-better for able-bodied adults: step from sidewalk into front door is very high (like knee height) and stairs to unit are steep which was hard to maneuver with bags. Would have appreciated this info in the listing. There also was construction on the road and a port-o-potty blocking the sidewalk. I understand this is unavoidable but would have appreciated a heads up.
