Peggy was really nice and was very upfront with the details of accommodation. I will say, too many rules for my own personal preferences (2 hr open window for kitchen day and night, no shoes, no beverages in your room, 15 MAX bathroom time). And lack of simple amenities such as a coffee and water.
Also, there was some confusion about her sharp 9pm check-in. I figured as a “new guest” I’d have to check in by 9pm for our reservation which I did - however my friend flying in from Germany was unable to stay because her flight didn’t get in until 11pm and apparently the “sharp checkin” is for the ENTIRE party. Had to book a last minute hostel for my friend and drive around the entire bay to get her somewhere to sleep for the night.
There was a lack of communal space which kinda left me and my friend feeling confined to either spending money outside or hiding in our rooms. Also, the cat and his use of the bathtub as a bathroom was a bit much for me and I couldn’t find myself able to stand the smell enough to shower. To be fair, Peggy has this listed on her page - I just didn’t realize what that actually meant. Maybe more pleasing if he used the toilet? Also, having to deal with the cat trying to constantly run outside and into your personal space - with the host saying it’s your responsibility to catch him if he gets out was a bit much as well.
Overall Peggy seems to care (she did her best to help me find somewhere for my friend and even offered partial refund for the following night if unable to find one) and is kind hearted however, I might go for somewhere with communal space and comfortable environment next time. However we were upstairs in the private room and not down in the bunks - so maybe the bunks away from the animals would be more comfortable.
