My experience was okay.
Felt like all the rules were unnecessary and the male host was uptight about everything for no reason. Including an extra $50 fee to take photos that weren’t professional - which he constantly reminded me 3x (through text + in person) DURING my stay even though I was only staying for a short amount of time.
The male host ruined the stay especially since I was not planning to stay the night.
Then he had the audacity to interrupt my stay to let me know for future reference to adjust the type of stay. Like why does it matter? I’m paying the entire booking - I’m able to stay until check out if I wanted to.
Very unnecessary conversation/reminder since I only stayed until 2AM.
Also - you will not have your own private key to the bedroom. Huge downside due to the fact that I want my items safe when the airbnb is community based.
When I arrived, the previous guest from the night before were still there and stayed for 2 more hours, so the entrance was confusing.
The room was not what I expected, but still not bad. The setup was strange though - it was in an old garage and all the furniture was very old + antique. The mattress and couch were uncomfortable as well.
The only cool part was the outdoor area with the pool, other than that - it was not worth $152. Including an extra $50 to take photos. He verbally told me that it’s originally “$150” for photos involved.
It didn’t feel like a private stay to enjoy because a lot of random people kept coming in and out, even the parking situation was weird. Having to leave our car keys near the door just in case of blocking cars. Also, expect to move your car after 3PM. You’d have to park around the block.
There are also 2 rooms in this Airbnb so another person booked to stay in the other room. At around 8PM, this lady knocked on my door to ask me where her bedroom was because the host were not there to check her in.
It was a bit confusing staying at this place. The experience was strange. Not worth the booking fee at all.
