Alec's place was chill but the picture and listing description really glorify this place. The location isn't as convenient. The parking situation was a whole mess as Alec didn't even know that the parking space I was assigned had been double booked. I was told to park on the street and eventually told to park in the back two weeks into my stay.
The dishes inside the cabinets were dirty and had water in them, as did the flatware in the drawer. Alec's team also didn't make sure that the thermostat was at full battery before I checked in. It died on me and I was left without heat in the winter for about six hours. At least Alec was on top of this and coordinated with his maintenance guy.
All in all, I wish I had a better stay but just make sure you due your due diligence when booking his place. He's a good host, i just got the short end of the stick on this stay. I'm sure he'll do better next time.
