Here are some issues I had with the place:
- I found an opened box of milk in the fridge, a half-eaten pie and some water left from a previous guest
- I had to wash the duvet because it had an old smell and the dishes because they were dirty. When I mentioned it to the host, she replied that I can go ahead and paint the kitchen while I’m at it
- when I arrived it was cold and I had to wait for 30 minutes with my coat on for it to warm up
- it’s far from everything and frankly, unless this is given to you for free or super cheap, there are much nicer places where you could stay.
I would have given the place and the hosts 0 stars for their hostile communication style, but I gave it 2 in the end - one for the bed, which is comfortable, and one for the people working at McDonalds opposite because they were nice to me.
—- I locked myself out (not the hosts’ fault) but I didn’t have the key to unlock the door and the lock didn’t reset. The hosts didn’t even care enough to come and check it out (when I suggested that, they said that maybe I’m also expecting them to tuck me into bed at night). I asked to change my reservation and they refused, so I had to cancel the rest of it and find a nicer place. When I pointed out some things I was made to feel as if I was only trying to get back some money and scam them, and was called a liar (the first time in my adult life, so thanks for that).
If you can avoid this place, considering that it’s far from everything & cleanliness and politeness are not things the hosts care about, do it.
