Sandra was a lovely host but either the post description or pricing needs some adjustment.
There is a dog in the apartment that is never mentioned (no big deal for us but I know some people don’t do well with dogs). The lock on the shared bathroom door is broken and the handle doesn’t latch so it’s just kind of pushed closed. I couldn’t connect to the WiFi and when I asked about it I was told that the WiFi was broken. The rooftop patio is easily accessible but there are no chairs or a table yet and the on-site parking mentioned is actually on-street metered parking.
The host did her best to accommodate us for each issue but if you’re going to charge this much for a bed with no private bathroom then the amenities listed should be spot on, not “oh, that doesn’t work” as you go through the house after you’ve already paid.
On the upside, as I said, Sandra is lovely, her dog is a sweetheart and her roommate Ollie is very nice as well. The location is close to shopping & restaurants with just enough buffer to keep it quiet at night. The room was spotless and well dressed as was the bathroom. Sandra allowed me to tether off her phone for a little while in place of WiFi and she even offered to drop off some postcards in the mail for me the next morning so I wouldn’t have to make an extra stop on the way to the airport.
Overall the space is good but I do think it’s overpriced for what you currently get. Once everything is working properly it will be a better value.
