The good: pretty clean overall with small exceptions. Hosts are responsive and kind- allowed us to check-in early in the morning due to some delays and to check-out 30 minutes later. Pictures are overall accurate and place is stylish.
The bad: This is a basement suite so keep in mind there will be issues with local heating, coldness, noise and insects. First night we killed about 30-40 tiny flies (or gnats) on the walls. There were also tiny smears and stains on the wall where others were clearly killing these flies as well. They are attracted to the light so every night after that we had to keep the lights off near the kitchen window and entrance door which was a bit annoying but we had no more flies after that. At the kitchen window, the intelligent spiders caught on and put a web over the window which now has about 15 dead flies caught in the web. We can hear the loud footsteps upstairs quite often. The host warned us after we arrived that the water leaks out of the shower so we need to point the shower head away from the shower door...despite us trying to angle the shower head away which was annoying, the water continued to leak into the bathroom floor. Had to stack towels on the bathroom floor to prevent a pool of water. The basement can get quite cold especially at night. The only way to heat it up is to ask the host to turn up the heat on their end which can be annoying. There is a dyson heater and although warm, it is very loud so individual heat control is difficult in this suite unless you want to repeatedly contact the host.
Would we return? No
