PROS: Good location and didn’t have any trouble parking. The neighborhood feels very safe and quiet and is in walking distance to restaurants/coffee/etc. Host was quick to respond to issues we had (get to that later).
CONS: We were very disappointed with the cleanliness of the stay. The couch and throw pillows looks like they need a deep clean/shampoo and are very stained. Floors weren’t cleaned well- there were long black strands of hair all over the bedroom floor and some on the bed as well. The sheets for the pull out bed didn’t seems to have been washed at all? They weren’t folded and were thrown on the closet shelf. The washing machine was also dirty with sand and debris (probably from other guests, the laundry room is shared with the main house) so we couldn’t wash them ourselves. The host did address this and bring us clean sheets the next morning though.
The futon is TERRIBLE to sleep on, the mattress sags badly so you are sleeping in an “S” position the entire night and the metal bars holding it up are pressing into you. Wouldn’t recommend if you have a party that requires someone to sleep on the futon.
Wifi was also spotty- didn’t cause any huge issues for us but we did have a student in our party who had a bit of trouble trying to finish up homework. I noticed my phone was also connecting and disconnecting from the WiFi. Hulu on the TV wasn’t working correctly for some reason as well, didn’t seem to be wifi related since netflix was fine. Also, we were not sensitive to noise but if you are be aware there are guests on the floor above you that you can occasionally hear.

OVERALL: Definitely needs an improvement on the cleanliness area. Would recommend for parties of 2 people or maybe 3 if the third person can sleep on the couch without pulling the bed out.
