Overall had a good stay. The location was great for me & my dog. It's in a nice, residential neighborhood & walking distance to a park. Also very close to the 10. Driveway parking was convenient & the unit is clean & private.
The place is unexpectedly small- just one room! It was freezing when I arrived, windows were open. I couldn't get the heater to work but the host's father helped me. He was kind & helpful, but there was a language barrier. Finally heat came out, but it didn't last very long & didn't warm the place up. I don't think the thermostat on it is accurate because it's placed high up near the ceiling. The tile floor stays very cold. So I ended up using my own space heater, which was only set at 72 but took about 4-5 hours to warm the place to that temperature, despite the wall unit claiming 73!
Loved the high bathroom counter, & they've put some very thoughtful amenities in there. I did have trouble with the water. I let the sink run for over 5 minutes and the water was still freezing, so I tried testing the shower too & that made the sink get warm. I had the same problem with the shower, but it warmed up after a few minutes plus flushing the toilet! So the trick is to turn on both the sink and the shower and then flush the toilet when you want hot water from either the sink or the shower. That way it only takes about 4 minutes to get warm. Really annoying to have to do that every time just to wash my hands. It wastes a lot of water! Also the bed is so hard, but the bedding & towels were nice and soft.
