This was a bad experience for our party of four over a 10-night stay. By the time we realized how bad it was a day in, no hotels in the area could reasonably accommodate us (right around the Christmas holiday). So, we were stuck staying here.
Here are many of the problems, though I've probably left some out. There is no way to sleep here comfortably. Our group was only 4, and we weren't comfortable. The mattresses in the bedrooms are thin and sinking. The couch/futon in the office can't be slept on--I had to sleep on the torn and sunken couch in the living room.
The gas stove in the kitchen wasn't working. All of the handles to the gas knobs were broken. We could get two of the five burners to ignite, but we had to be very careful to ensure that they were off to the point that gas wouldn't leak (we smelled gas on multiple occasions). There were no working smoke detectors or carbon monoxide detectors.
The towels were raggedy. There were no wash cloths. Sheets--at least top sheets--didn't fit the mattresses. The lights would flicker whenever the heater turned on (and at least one light fixture was partially shattered). The place wasn't stocked with enough toilet paper, paper towels, or garbage bags. The shades in the front of the house couldn't be opened without them falling down or off. Screens in some of the windows were torn through or cut out. There are no proper curtains in the bedrooms--one had a sheet pinned up.
Some pillow covers and blankets smelled of smoke.
The microwave was dirty.No mattress pads. The wash machine and dryer were dirty. The furniture outside was also very dirty. The pots and pans were very scratched up--we didn't use anything but one pan to boil water.
The wash machine had a hamper full of the host's dirty laundry. The front gate to the street didn't actually run on electricity, so we had to manually open and close it each time (a problem if people have difficulty pushing or pulling).
The only good things to say about the place are that the host allowed us to check in 1.5 hours early and got the running toilet fixed the day we let her know about it. She provided the correct wifi password after a couple tries. The location was convenient. But, the whole experience was not at all good. I can't recommend this place under any circumstances. Budget motels/hotels in the general price range would have been much more comfortable. We would have left within a day if any place could have reasonably accommodated us.
