I really want to give this place five stars, but I can’t because of a few but notable issues I encountered during my stay.
To begin, I’ll like to commend Felix for being a great communicator and also for setting up his place to look so nice - frankly, the pictures understate how nice and cozy this listing is. The home looks like it was recently renovated with modern interiors. The beds are quite comfy too and the house looked clean overall.
However, I couldn’t help but notice random ants strolling around in different parts of the house - bathroom, living room and even on the bed :( I spoke to Felix about this issue and he suggested using an insect sprayer which was in the house already - For me, this isn’t good enough; I’ll rather not have to worry about picking an ant from my butt crack, period!
Then there’s the issue with the neighbors dogs barking all night long! I barely had any sleep my first two night of staying here because I’m a light sleeper! After complaining to Felix, the dogs stopped barking from the third night - not sure if he spoke to the neighbors.
As a heads up to others, this house does not have a central AC unit. There’s a single unit in one of the bedrooms which doesn’t cool the entire house, even though the host somehow thinks it should. Weirdly, It was hotter staying in the house than being outside :/ luckily, we were only in the house at night to sleep.
If you can tolerate the ants, dogs barking and the heat, then this listing might just work for you!
And oh, the WiFi signal is not strong in the rooms - almost unusable. I suspect the access point is located in the next house.
