Parking is difficult. Neighborhood felt a little unsafe. Host threatened to charge $20 for every 15 minutes after I asked for a later checkout, which she denied - but somehow assumed we stayed until she received an update that we left (which she demanded in a message which I didn’t see until well after we left - accepting her “no” to an extension and not seeing her follow up message demanding we let her know when we left ). I opened my messages to her saying “we’re at $80...” around noon and a threat to charge me $120 by 1pm. It was really awkward to have to say that we left before 11:30am when she said the cleaning folks would arrive and that no we aren’t paying her $80.
What’s worse is that I realized I left something behind and asked her if I could come back to retrieve it. She said she would “ask the owner” to put it outside on the porch of the main house (bungalow is in back of house). We returned around 1pm and my partner didn’t see it on the porch so I messaged that it wasn’t there and my partner will go to the bungalow and ask the cleaning people to grab it. She replied it was on the porch and “please don’t go back there”, which we found to be an incredibly rude remark, but by then he already went back to the bungalow to check. My partner noted that no cleaning staff was present and the bed was still unmade. We found our items then on the porch. The host was quick to have an attitude and I couldn’t believe her messages trying to charge us - it was such a turn off.
