pros: location, bathrooms cleaned often, and the hosts were fast at communicating…until 8 days before the end of my reservation when i sent a request to shorten it, accompanied it with a message, and they never responded to my message or request. i wish they would’ve communicated with me that they werent going to approve the change so that i could’ve canceled the remainder of the reservation. UPDATE: one hour after my checkout time they declined my request. again, this is not helpful and i wish they would’ve communicated with me.
you’re sharing 2.5 bathrooms with 5 other bedrooms filled with airbnb guests—up to two guests per room. the host does not live on site and you need to be prepared to lug your luggage up a flight of stairs when you arrive. adding this part about the stairs although it’s in the listing so that americans who view first floor as ground floor won’t be confused. like a recent reviewer mentioned, there’s no heat so keep that in mind when you book. i booked during a time when the weather dropped to 40°f at night and i was cold when i was in the room. after fees this came out to $39/night and there are plenty of clean/safe hotels w heating for that price, you’re paying a premium for the location.
i had some cleaning issues upon checkin and the hosts intended to solve them by the following day. most were solved and as for the ones that weren’t i think it was just a miscommunication.
