This was my first AirBnB experience so I don't know if this place is the norm but it was actually a disappointing experience. We were greeted by Julian, who explained the rules of the house such as paying $2 each for a towel and the strict 8-9am breakfast rules. It felt a bit like we were naughty school kids on camp when he insisted on shoes off inside but he was at least friendly. The breakfast offering was minimal -one piece of fruit each , no yoghurt appeared on our first day and the one cereal provided was a very average muesli (think a jar of rolled oats). Plenty of spreads for toast No one came near us the rest of the time we were there and we never met the hostess even though I knew she was at home, although many may be like this. At breakfast it was quite strange being in someone else's place when they were not home and having to search around for supplies.
The 70's style annex room (don't be fooled at the colonial exterior- your actual accomodation is pure retro) is adequate and clean. It has a tiny toilet with a miniscule sink.
The shared shower was a step too far for me however, with a walk through their house to use their bathroom and an old piece of soap provided to wash with. Maybe I have been spoilt in the past with good B&Bs but these guys don't seem to be putting much effort into customer service or creating a welcoming environment. Not terrible but definitely not highly recommended.
