We could see that Aaron has made some effort to be a good host when we arrived- there were many new kitchen amenities, some food basics like olive oil and vinegar, tea etc. However there were still things that were a bit shabby- the beds, the gate, the big stain in a bedroom carpet, the back yard. Ok, so for a week you can live with it. The downer for us was that to get there we had a long drive across the desert from Phoenix with 2 cats and 2 bicycles, and when we got to Aaron's place, it was hot as an oven, the air conditioning wasn't working, and Aaron did not answer the phone. Second, we went out for a little dinner and discovered we were locked out. I called Airbnb and they couldn't get a hold of Aaron either. They told us we'd have to stay in a hotel, which of course was not great, because we had 2 cats in that hot place, and no clothes or anything to handle a night in a hotel. Big awful after a long hot day. Aaron finally called and let us in the place. To his credit, he got the AC repaired the next morning. That was good. Before we left to return to Phoenix, we cleaned up the place nicely as I try to be thoughtful and considerate of the host. The other downer was after I got home, he called to tell me there was cat hair on the sheets and was some kind of spot on the bedspread. I had told him when I made the reservation that I intended to bring 2 cats and he had ok'd that. I told him that we did leave the place more than neat and tidy. I didn't think we had to wash the bed linens as other airbnbs where I stayed had a cleaning person do that, and those things come off easily in the washing machine. He acknowledged that, but somehow felt it was important to call me and criticize. Even though Aaron had put some effort into improving the place, based on him being unavailable to problem solve when we arrived, and his call to criticize over nothing after we left, I'm not sure he has the temperament to be an airbnb host. So be aware of this.
