The private entrance and the location are great, the bed is comfortable, and the room is spacious.
That said, there was a lot of little things that were not the best:
- The floor was covered in a very thin layer of what appeared to be grease, unsure if this was some weird cleaning product, but it tracked and made wearing indoor shoes a necessity to not ruin socks.
- While we didn’t expect to cook anything, still we were surprised by the fact that there were no frying pans or similar kitchen products to use on the electric stovetop, making use question why the stovetop is even there to begin with. Let just make it clear that there is no kitchen in this listing.
- The bed only came with a blanket and two pillows, no comforters etc. This led to us having to buy an additional blanket just to stay warm during the nights. Side note, the room gets really cold in winter (but there is an old oil heater thing that kinda works a bit).
- The lighting in the room is terrible, the far side of the room has no lights and will be dim at best when the sun is down.
Overall, they stay was what we expected. Nothing amazing, nothing terrible. What struck us most was a general impression of laziness. The lack of a comforter to decrease laundry, the absence of more than one roll of toilet paper, the grease on the floor, the construction materials in the corner from setting up a fake brick wall in the “kitchen”, the stickers on the twice discounted refrigerator, the semi-clogged bathroom sink faucet, the lack of instructions for connecting to WiFi. Things that are easily fixed and that would drastically improve the value of the listing.
