The door didn't lock. The control mechanism outside wouldn't work. When I asked Gowan about it he didn't respond for a day and ended up texting something like"when can you talk?" "have you downloaded the app" with no other help or instructions given. I did download the app, but mind you the door lock mechanism DIDNT WORK. The App says I need an invite or a serial code INSIDE the lock, which, I feel like shouldn't be something something travelling should be doing. Besides the lock that doesn't lock, we have the broken window that doesn't close. IT was close to 40 that night with the thermostat on a weird shcedule that made it keep shutting off and and rendered it effectively useless and still freezing cold inside.
The green wall IS really thing. I could hear their WHISPERS by that walll. Like sitting a solid 10 meters away I could hear their whispers. It honestly amplifies sound more than it blocks it seemed.
Lastly, it seems nice on the inside and it kind of is; its very surface level niceness. NO sink in teh "kitchenette" but all these appliances and things that require cleaning. Effectively rendering them useless or forcing us to leave a huge mess behind. The water heat; it never really got hot. Like maybe luke-warm/warm, but not even close to what I consider usable "hot" shower temperature. So basically if ti's something you can't see from a picture, IE. water pressure, water heat, basic amenities like locking doors, assume its broken or sub-par at best. I learned the hard way.
TLDR don't ever stay here. I asked for help the ENTIRE time and both AIRBNB and GOwan were fairly useless in giving ANY help. Airbnb gave me resolutions AFTER I had already checked out; told me to get a video of a lock not locking. Like they know I checked out why would they tell me so late? And GOwan, he must have had a good weekend because even at check-in, when I realized the lock didn't work, he was MIA. Next morning, MIA. ONly AFTER I contacted AIRBNB and they called him, he texted me "when can you talk" and "did you download app" LOL this guy. I tell him a window doesn't close/i'm freezing cold and that the door DOESN'T lock and he's just chilling somewhere. Why even manage the property? And if it's your own property, shame on you.
Lastly, it was GHETTO as hell the area. Honestly right around the corner is like a half a mile encampment of homeless. Going to and from the air bnb was a nightmare because they're crossing all the time and honestly who wants to sleep around the corner from homeless people? I mean isn't that why we all pay the $50000 cleaning fee that's usually more expensive than the place??? ESPECIALLY when the door doesn't god dang freaking LOCK?!?!?!?!?!??! like this airbnb shaved years off my life from stress.
All in all, would NEVER tell others to stay here. I'd stay get off AIRBNB and start staying in hotels cuz this did it for me. Don't be fooled by the pictures, go somewhere else your money's wasted here.
