While this place is cheap and in a convenient, safe area, overall it was not good.
Even trying to book it wasn't the best experience because the host was unresponsive. To the point that he allowed my request to expire and reposted the booking, which I then had to rebook. That should've been the point where I walked away, but I was enticed by the cheap price. Big mistake.
The pictures of the room in the ad seem to be when the room was a bit newer. The room does not look that crisp in reality.
The washer and dryer was broken for the first week or so.
The bed is pretty uncomfortable so if you have back issues, this is not the room for you. Further, there were spiders and moths all over this room and house constantly. There's no screen on the window, but even with the window closed, it changed nothing. I didn't even complete my entire stay because it became incredibly uncomfortable. Had it been for only the first week, I would've been fine. But it increasingly got worse. And I ended up checking out 4 days before my actual check out date.
For my part, I did not communicate my issues to the host because they already weren't communicative so I just decided to deal with it.
Overall, the room and the cottage it is in are incredibly old therefore the level of cleanliness holds a layer of grime that's pretty unmistakable. The host will say the cleaning depends on the tenants but old is old. And this place is not ever going to be clean without a proper deep cleaning. If you're in a pinch like me, and are falling in love with the price, think a little bit harder about your overall comfortability because I so wish I had.
