Our stay at George & Lola was fine. The apartment was spacious, spotless and the beds were very comfortable. The neighborhood was quiet and felt safe. Parking is a bit snug but convenient to have on site.
However, the check in process totally ruined our experience. We don’t expect hosts to be flexible with check in times but the check in process has to be convenient. The host won’t communicate the code to the lock box until you are physically at the property. This and check in fees make no sense. If it’s self check in, we ought to be able to check in anytime after the check time. There was no need for us to rush across town to go check in to avoid a fee, only to stand in the rain while we waited for the code. Text us the code at the check in time and all this could have been avoided.
I would definitely stay at this place again but only if the host revises their check in process and does away with absurd “self check in” fees.
