We stayed at Johanna's place for a few days in December and while we enjoyed the interior decorating and attention to detail, overall we felt it was not priced appropriately.
First, the good: it is a beautifully arranged space, with tons of natural light and well-chosen furniture as you see in the photographs. We had no complaints about amenities provided, communication, or check-in and check-out.
We would have liked to have known in advance that the apartment is unheated and poorly insulated, which meant it was quite cold during the time of year we stayed even with the two space heaters provided running all day.
We experienced multiple nights with loud noises and generally would have expected a nicer experience given the price-point.
The building and space is quite old and located above a convenience store—again, not necessarily a problem, but we expected better at a premium price-point.
The listing was slightly misleading and contained a handful of inaccuracies regarding parking, breakfast, there being a patio, lake access, self check-in, and dedicated work-space. Also while the listing is clear that you have to pay to use the second bedroom (extra $100 per night), it felt a little tough given that it's listed as 2BD.
Johanna charges $10 to use the washer and dryer, and told us this is because of the cost of water. This was written in the listing, but it just seems odd for a place that's almost $300 per day.
In the end, we appreciated Johanna hosting us and thought she was responsive and organized, but the impression the listing gave just didn't match our experience. In hindsight we wish we had followed up earlier and asked for a partial refund, but with our travels and holidays didn't end up doing so.
