I was only in town for a short spell so I unfortunately didn't get much opportunity to interact directly with Melissa and Palmer, but all comms were swift and friendly and the space is truly AMAZING. I personally chose this place in part because of the surrounding area, but as the hosts iterate several times, definitely read the listing thoroughly to see if this is what you're comfortable with as I can see how it wouldn't be for everyone. If, like me, you are travelling without your own transport and want to get up into the main areas of the city, you will either need to be okay with walking/bussing through some areas that will cause you to reflect on your privilege or have budgeted for Lyfts. I'd emphasise that I never felt unsafe, especially within a 10-minute radius of the accommodation, but definitely felt uncomfortable - not in a bad way, in an appropriate way, but a way that maybe not everyone would want to. There isn't a single reason I wouldn't recommend a stay here for like-minded travellers - the space is beautiful, the area is interesting, Guerrilla Tacos is just up the street (GO THERE - the cauliflower taco in particular is incredible), there are two soppy cats to befriend, and the hosts are relaxed and flexible; it's like staying in a museum. You will want an eye mask and to make use of the earplugs if you're a light sleeper, and you may wish to check out the other rooms if a ladder might present an issue, but staying in this treehouse-cum-cabin and getting to carve my name into the wall was a super treat. Thank you for a great, if short, stay!
