Alesia’s place is exactly as advertised. A place good for a week if you really need to lay low and just disappear. Frankly, I can’t say I was expecting much from this place but the interaction I have had with this host was simply nothing but rude and unruly at times. Our first interaction without any sort of small talk or any warm welcome hinged on asking if I was Chinese and asking why I wore a mask and if it was because of COVID-19. Wasn’t really appreciative of the racial microaggression out the door.
And even prior to the interaction, I had communicated with them possibly about coming earlier to drop off my bags and they impressed upon me a time I had arrived to and had to wait thirty minutes till about the time of check-in.
The initial impression was that the place smelled in general with an odor that was off-putting. There were some positive aspects like that the bathroom was decent and the hot water worked great.
The room was small (no complaints on my end). Pretty much was in and out, never really staying in the room that long. My experience with this stay really dampered on Alicia’s conduct as a host became snarky when I had a misunderstanding about check-in to which the host had replied “I am always right.”
I do not recommend this place for anybody who is simply there to enjoy the space.
