Personally think the negative reviews are more harsh than necessary.
Pros:
- quick response from host * once the booking began*
- good amount of space (it was x3 adults and a baby for us)
- great mattress and pillows
- garage was appreciated
- a cute grocery store in the vicinity
- clean (ish)
- pots and pans
- lots of storage space for clothes
- mini first aid kit
- heater generally worked for the house
- decor and furniture were cute
- train wasn’t that loud tbh
- area was ok not as sketchy as some made it out to be
Things to note/ cons
- no shower gel or shampoo so bring your own
- ran out of toilet paper and had to ask for more
- bedroom windows are old so let in draft. Bring extra layers for the night if you’re visiting in the colder temps
- shower was old and shower curtain was annoying
- toilet brushes were dirty and hadn’t been disinfected
- living room floor hadn’t been properly vacuumed
