here is what we found upon arrival in the home. very cold..we had to get the stove going..took awhile. hair in the sink and shower of bathroom. stained kitchen towels. opened, used food items left by previous guests. dirty refrigerator shelf. Dirty leftover pizza box in cabinet. This tells me that host does not check things. The sofa...is not fit for sleeping unless you are cool with feeling the springs. Very low lighting in main room..not conducive for anything. No mats to wipe feet in any of the two entrances to home..so then you have no choice but track mud/dirt..there are no carpets/rugs at all ..floor is cold..so you need to stay in the same shoes that just brought in the dirt...there was a bowl of fruit on table...dried lemons and rotting apples...when we commented on these things the host had an explanation for everything ....including why he hadn't gone through the refrigerator to throw out open hot dog package that had been left....when we asked for more firewood for the night (cold rainy night 43 degrees, ) he just kept insisting that we had more than enough...he did agree finally to bring more firewood.
i want to add...i read several reviews of this place before hand..so was extremely disappointed to encounter what we encountered.
AND the photo of this host...is NOT THE HOST...he has chosen a photo of Nelson Mandela to represent him...and Airbnb approved this....hmmmm?
