Ok so I’m surprised this place is rated as highly as it is but everyone’s definition of clean, quiet and safe are different. Let me start by saying we had no issues with renter or looked for any discount or refund and my review is honest and true to our visit. We left the place cleaner then we received it as I couldn’t get my mom to stop cleaning due to her need for cleanliness. Previous reviews have mentioned some of the items I am pointing out as well.
Pros:
Water temps and pressure of water is great.
Kitchen and home as a whole is very spacious and bigger then expected and pictured.
Doesn’t stink actually smelt pleasant
Beds comfortable and sheets seemed clean
Easy check in and renter very flexible.
Fast responses and very nice renter
Provides streaming services with out having to login with personal logins
Wifi is great!
Parking spot was nice to have
Cons:
Dirty And Dusty- NOT professionally cleaned at all! Furniture (especially sofa), floors, doors, switches, fixtures all very clearly and visually dirty. Sofa had hair from people and pets, feathers, dust, food wrappers in between cushions and we found bag of candy and other items under sofa. Chair with footrest is very dirty.
Fire alarm super sensitive goes off with any cooking
Small toilet! Not plus size friendly shower or toilet. Toilet position is literally right next to wall so need to sit to one side with legs together or do a split to use toilet that has a giant bidet that is loose and doesn’t work. The hole is small so it’s like going potty in a small bucket.
No screens on most windows
Freezer with food that fell out of packaging and left over from previous stays.
Homeless people living in rv in front and broken down beat up car. Made us feel unsafe however after seeing that homelessness is EVERYWHERE in San Fran we got a bit more use to it by night 3.
Lots of noise in neighborhood. Across the street neighbors had fire pit going music and drinking Fri-Sun. Homeless in front and RV people up all hours and lastly neighbors on left are doing renovations that started at 6-7am almost every morning we were there for our 5day stay.
Floors are dirty need shoes on at all times
Towels smelt like mildew as if they sat wet then dried. We had to go buy our own towels, body rags and shower mat as floor in shower looked rough.
Cars parked everywhere (but wasn’t an issue since you get one space right in front of home)
I am disappointed at the misleading reviews and lack of info as I am huge on reviews when looking at anything I spend money one. I give honest and fair reviews. I am not requesting discount or refund and have no bad interaction with renter or out to make anyone look bad. This home is a good price as location is excellent but with a few changes and updates would make for an incredible rental property. I thank host for allowing us to rent his unit and hope he makes a few changes to make his place a 5star rental.
