First I would like to express my sincerest gratitude to the host. Dorothy is a wonderful host. She is by far the best host I have ever encountered since renting Airbnb's. She communicates very well and if there is an issue, she will attempt to resolve the matter very quickly.
I do not believe the host resides on the premises. There were several things within the Airbnb that was broken and even though one of the house rules is no smoking, the moment we arrived the entire placed smelled like Cigarette smoke. I am not a smoker so I immediately had to purchase some Free-breeze to spray within the home. Again not the Host Fault.
There are definitely some Pros and Cons to renting this specific Airbnb. Some Pros: Location is great, its very beautiful, the scenery was amazing and its a great neighborhood to walk around in. My Wife and I, walked around the neighborhood looking at all the beautiful houses and looked at the beautiful mountain in front of us. The Kitchen had all the necessary tools to make food and save some money that way. The home has two bathrooms which makes it great for two woman. It is centrally located by everything and at least 25 minutes away from a lot of different things to do. The backyard is so beautiful to enjoy a nice lunch or dinner. This location is surrounded by different grocery stores, restaurants, and pharmacies. which made it great to grab small things for making a meal or anything else. The Host provided breakfast items which was so awesome because Its my favorite meal of the day. The host is so responsive whenever you reach out.
Some Cons. Firstly, to some this may not be a con; however, for my wife and I, it was a con. The tenant in the upper section have/has a lot of children. They were screaming from starting from 5am almost to 10pm at night. This kind of put a damper on our nights, especially when trying to be romantically involved with each other. We at some points were whispering to each other, because we both felt like we didn't want to wake the children. They screamed and ran throughout the entire house and it was sometimes hard to just relax. At one point, it got so bad I was thinking of just getting a hotel but my wife insisted on staying since we paid. Again, this is not the Hosts fault.
Some of the main reasons, I selected this Airbnb were because of the Amenities. I wanted to have a nice romantic Jacuzzi bath with my wife but the Jacuzzi Jets did not work; however, I still provided a romantic candle lit bath for my wife. The A/C freezes the Tenants in the front so there is a portable A/C unit within the Unit; however, it did not work. The entire unit got extremely hot and even opening the door to let it air out did not help. We could have just turned on the A/C but then we would freeze the other tenants. Again not the fault of the host, it was our fault because we cared about the other people
Other than that, I would have given it five stars had we been able to use the Jacuzzi
