The pictures definitely made this place seem much nicer and roomier than it was. The bedrooms were right next to each other with very little sound insulation, so there was little point in having separate rooms. The house was missing shampoo and overall is need of some repairs. One of the bedroom doors was extremely squeaky and the toaster was not working. There was very little cookware/dishware to use. I have read several other reviewers mention that this place would be a lot better if some more effort went into maintaining/repairing it, and agree with this.
Fortunately, the host was generally nice and flexible, though a bit unresponsive. If not for his flexibility on something we requested and the great location, this place would have gotten three stars.
