For context, Nicole did have to leave in the evening, and said she shouldn't have accepted my booking.
Whilst the room was (barely) serviceably clean, the rest of the house certainly wasn't (bathroom/kitchen/living area). The room was adequately sized, if on the smaller side.
Compared to the other 3 bookings (all 5*) which were in a similar price range, this room definitely stood out, but again, Nicole was rushed and busy - YMMV, I did give some slack for that in my review, however this experience was disappointing - the couch at my brothers (untidy) place 500m away would've been a similar level experience.
The house is also on very steep steps that is a decent walk from the road - probably not suited to elderly people especially when wet.
