our stay here was ok. it served its purpose but i wouldnt stay again.
a few things I was very disappointed with, which had I realized I would have stayed elsewhere:
1. unit safety. we were not given a key to lock our valuables in the unit which is accessible by the upstairs unit. we had to leave it open while we were out.
there is a lock on the gate to the backyard which is the only way into the unit so no one off the street can get in however we had to trust the upstairs people/owners which troubled us.
the host Said not to worry as its a safe neighborhood but still....bad things can happen in safe places
also the lock on the door was flimsy and loose with no alternative way to lock the door ie a sliding chain lock so this made us feel a bit vulnerable as 2 female traveller's.
2. cleanliness. the $50 cleaning charge we paid was not put to good use. the shower had black mold along the bottom and along the glass. the place was dusty. and the white sheets had yellow staining from other people's body oils etc which creeped us out. other than that the bed is comfy
3. breakfast provided wasn't really. it was almost empty cereal boxes with no milk to be found. not a deal breaker but why advertise this?
4. shower was not well stocked. most bottles were empty so be sure to bring your own. and no hand towels or face cloths given.
it's a decent place but all these factors really took away from the value aspect of choosing the place and the safety was not acceptable in my opinion.
