Unfortunately I left after one night as felt deeply comfortable about a number of issues.
The listing is not accurate and omits key information which is necessary to guests feeling safe.
The small double room which looks worse than pictures is in the BASEMENT. It had a damp smell and there is another bedroom down there with someone (?) living there. Not good for people with respiratory conditions.
The host was vague about his whereabouts which was a shame as I really like meeting hosts and getting local tips in the area. I’m not actually convinced he lives in this property- a number of other guests also haven’t met him. Of course this is difficult to prove however when the other rooms were ajar with clearly people in them I said hello and knocked but no one came out to see me, so weird. There is no living room and the whole house is total rental property vibes, the garden was inaccessible with an iron fence and I imagine if you did really own a house in that area you’d make a lot more effort with its presentation. I was also only told on the day that someone else was living there (I think it’s more than one) and again this should be transparently explained in the listing so guests (especially solo female travelers) know exactly what to expect before they make a decision. This made me feel uncomfortable that this information was given so late when I had no time on my weekend break to find a suitable alternative. There was also a motion sensor/ camera? In the room which was off putting. Of course for the price, you don’t expect luxury but a little more effort would go a long way.
There were also very noisy roadworks in the morning which would have given some prior warning to residents and I was not told about this. I had to cut my weakened short and return home. I don’t recommend staying here.
