Warning: Check in instructions (including photos of lockbox) for this listing were inaccurate so - like the last few guests - we struggled to enter the unit. These need to be updated asap since we got stuck outside briefly in a snowstorm upon arrival. I see from the last few reviews that this is a chronic issue. Owner helped us resolve via text but it was cold and stressful and we were tired from our travels.
Also similar to a previous guest, we found dirty laundry behind one of the bedroom doors (men’s underwear, etc). Otherwise the unit was very clean.
We paid for an extra day to extend our stay due to me needing to work one more day in Toronto (to give an online lecture), and while this added day was verified and updated in the Airbnb app, and processed on my credit card, the cleaner was unaware of the added day, and entered the unit while I was in the middle of giving lecture to a large group. It was disruptive and embarrassing for me, as I was interrupted mid sentence and lost my train of thought, and confusing for everyone involved (including the cleaner and the audience).
The house itself is in a great location, and the decor is nice, but be aware that it suffers from some wear and tea (lots of scuffs on the walls, chipped paint, cracks in the flooring downstairs, a broken mirrored table upstairs, all of which we took photos of and documented on the first day because we are very careful guests and didn’t want to be accused of breaking or damaging anything), and some broken communication (e.g. not updating the lockbox information and photos to make entry easier, communicating with cleaners, etc).
If these issues were resolved, I would have loved to return, given the great location, spacious house, and lovely decor. We were otherwise comfortable and enjoyed the stay. I hope these issues are resolved since this place has so much potential to be an excellent Airbnb location!
