Good location
Only one key for the house which is in a lockbox outside.
AC is super powerful especially in the living room. Please note, the controller is upstairs which at times when we were watching a movie or doing work downstairs, it was a hassle to go up and down the stairs.
The place is a split house. Walls are thin so if there is another airbnb guest renting next door, you will hear them.
The pictures look more luxe than it really is.
The king bed was extremely uncomfortable. We all moved into the other bedroom with 2 queen beds which was slightly better but still uncomfortable. We all had some back issues after the stay and didn't have great sleep.
Upstairs bathroom sink had no hot water. We didn't message Alex because we used the downstairs bathroom.
House is on the corner of an alley. Because it is a old house slightly renovated here and there, the walls are thin so the cars passing by the alley was pretty loud as well as his neighbors talking across the alley.
Great kitchen with new appliances which was a plus since we cooked a lot.
Both bathrooms had the sign 'do not throw toilet paper in the toilet' which was very strange. I messaged Alex to let him know it was unsanitary and why he had the sign up. He responded 'don't mind the sign, they fixed the pipe'.
One major issue I had was Alex's communication which I found a bit weird. When we first checked in, I called him to ask about an extra key. First thing he said was he was in Mexico. I thought it was strange for him to say. What was his point? I asked him if there was someone else I can talk to. He quickly said he was at my service.
Last day of our stay, the water stopped working (gardner broke the pipe). I messaged Alex and his response was 'I know' Another weird response. The water did not work for 3 hours. His communication was sloppy, short, and unapologetic. I was in the middle of cleaning up and my husband was in the middle of using the bathroom. Alex said it would be ready in 30 min which turned into an hour and so on. We finally went out to ask the gardner when the water would be turned back on. It was an inconvenience which we communicated to Alex. I asked if we can talk about some kind of discount which Alex never responded which was another sign of his service. He could have said 'no, he feels it was not a big issue, etc' But to not respond at all was weird.
All in all, I would not book this place again not only because Alex was very strange and in my opinion a bit unprofessional, but the split house itself was not a great comfortable stay as I mentioned in the above. Other guests may have gotten amazing service but not us.
