It’s hard to leave a review because I like Carl as a person so don’t want to say anything bad, but I HAVE TO mention important things cuz we pay our money and expect to receive promised service. Unfortunately since the place is pretty cheap the chance you will have loud and not educated person in a next room is pretty big, since walls in the US houses are very thin, you basically hear everything. Right until 10-11 pm I was listening to super loud TV and belchings from another guest(I guess). The toilet twice wasn’t clean with poop on it. But I would not decrease rating only because of it to be honest again because I liked the host and because it’s kind of not his fault that other guest is not educated well. The problem that should be fixed is Internet, my room didn’t have it at all, even though I needed a place with internet so I can work. Because of that I’ve spent 4 days in Starbucks and came back home only for sleeping. It should be written that there is no WiFi in some rooms so people be ready and pay only if they don’t need it. Also because of the remodeling I guess, there was no hot water in the bath. I don’t care about it because have no issue to clean myself in a cold water, but pretty sure a lot of people wouldn’t like it.
Other than that I want to say again, Carl is a great person and I hope after he will finish remodeling the house, the business will go up. However, to increase the internet coverage to all the rooms is an easy fix by just buying cheap extender, so this is my IT advice to Carl that will make a big difference.
Anyway, if you need a place to spend a night, most probably you will be fine, especially for guys.
