It was not pleasant, many of which had to do with what the host can control. We had a long flight from SF and arrived late at the place. The host made it easy for us to checkin even without her, however the toilet was broken and we could do nothing about it but left the place in the middle of the night for somewhere else. The host fixed it the next morning but we didnt want to come back. The place was pretty small, there is no kitchen so you cant cook there. Be careful with the toilet because it is really small and the water runs slow so it can easily be stuck. The host lives nice in the house at the front. Even though it said to be near the ocean, it was pretty far away and if you dont have a car than can get tricky.
The cancellation is strict so you practically dont get refund if you dont like the place. She made an effort to refund half to me though, which I tried but couldnt really appreciate that because of all the incidents that happened. Nothing gets more annoying than the toilet broken in the middle of the night upon your arrival and it was raining outside and you had to find another place. But seriously, anything can wait except going to the restroom. I could do a 3/4 refund but she insisted that she did me a favour on even refunding me and I didnt want to create a big mess or contact airbnb and all that, so I'd take it. She was pleasant though.
