OVERALL: TWO STARS. Length of stay: 3 months. TL; DR: Do not recommend. I had a very disappointing stay. Pros: Sheets and towels were changed weekly. Cons: These are random notes I took during my stay. (They are unedited. I apologize for the length and disorganization.) 0% hospitality. For example, one evening I was cooking dinner and Karen came home during the middle of it. She came in the kitchen and remarked, “You're cooking rice.” Then she proceeded to prepare her dinner in the microwave. The kitchen isn't big enough for two people to cook at the same time; so, I had to wait for her to finish preparing her meal before I could resume preparing mine. There was no “do you mind if I...” or “I'll just be a minute.” Paper towel would run out in the kitchen and I would have to ask for more by the messaging on the website. I offered to replace it myself if she would tell me were it was stored. But, she would not tell me. And, I had to repeated request the paper towel to be replaced. This got old very quickly. The host told me that she would be responsible for running and emptying the dishwasher. Later, the dishwasher had gotten full. I waited a couple of days, I messaged the host that the dishwasher was full and asked if she could run it. She replied that it wasn’t really full and she would check it when she got home. She sent a follow-up message that it wasn’t really full and asked me if I wanted her to show me how to load a dishwasher “efficiently” and that I could run the dishwasher myself. I had arranged the dishes and it was definitely full. And, it had been about a week since it was last ran. Later there were long time periods of the dishwasher not being ran. So much so that mold would grow on the dishes. Later in my stay, the host would the empty the dishwasher days after running it, and the other guest and I would just have to put dishes in the sink. Then when she would put the dishes away, she would leave the utensils in the basket on the counter. The first time, I thought it was just an oversight and put the utensils away. The second time, I left it and a few days later one of the other guest put them away. Eventually, she stopped running the dishwasher altogether; so, I pretty much ran it. The common areas—living room, family room, kitchen, and stairs to lower level—were very uninviting due to all the random storage of supplies and miscellaneous objects, incomplete bits of craft projects and whatnot throughout, and many dead plants. Guests only had the breakfast nook to eat. The table was really only big enough for one. The dining room was off limits due to being over the host’s bedroom. Heat. There were a few exceptionally cold days. There was no heat at all. I had to ask for the heat to be turned on. Cleanliness: The bathtub was never fully cleaned. Initially, it seemed like a little bit of cleaning may have been going on. But, by the end of my stay, it seem like it had not been touched in a month or so. It was kind of nasty. Again, minimal effort. Junk everywhere. Lots of dead plants. (Half of the several potted plants were dead when I arrived. And, seemed to have been dead for a long time. None of them were touched during my 3 month stay.) House very neglected and depressing. Obsessive with the recycling. Initially, host was going through the trash and removing recyclable items and placing them on the counter. I was eating dinner in the breakfast nook trying to ignore her going through the trash. She found a tofu container and asked if I had put it in the trash. I said no. Then she said, “I want to know who I have to talk to about putting recycling in the trash” in a very disrespectful tone. The host and I came home at the same time and just after we walked in, she announced that she smelled fish. And, repeated it. I’m like, okay, why are you saying that? The other guest had cooked last night but I didn’t really smell anything. Later, while I was eating dinner, the host started cleaning the walls in the kitchen with the floor mop and cleaner/air freshener. It made having dinner in the breakfast nook very unpleasant. I felt it was exceptionally inconsiderate. Suggestions: 1. Replace paper towel when it runs out and/or tell the guests where they can find more to replace it themselves. (I had to ask for more paper towel a few times. And, I asked to know where it was kept, but did not receive an answer.) 2. More regular and/or as needed cleaning of the bathroom. Or, leave toilet plunger, brush, and cleaning products available for guests. 3. Hand soap in the kitchen would have been nice. 4. Less emphasis on recycling 100% accurate. 5. Run the dishwasher on a more regular schedule and not requiring it to be 100% full before running. 6. Have a fuller array of dishes and utensils. For example, regular size bowls and a 2nd spatula would have been handy. 7. Clear away the random storage and unfinished projects in the common areas and stairs to the lower level. 8. Make extra towels available to guests. 9. Be more considerate of guests (see above) 10. Consider not having the answering machine announce your calls and play the voicemail on speaker. 11. Complete weekly cleaning of the kitchen. The stovetop was often not cleaned. Once mold was growing in the sink. Living Room and Family Room: Very uninviting. Uncared for. Lots of junk and random storage. Family Room: Dead little tree and dead plants. The same dead leaves on the floor for all three...
