This Airbnb is located in an up and coming neighborhood on a quiet street. The space itself is charming and has many small details that make it cozy. But for my experience here, it would be a place I would recommend to future travelers.
I booked this Airbnb four months prior to travel. I corresponded with Kirsten (the host) about my stay when I made the reservation. A week before my arrival I received a reminder email from Airbnb. I never received an email from Kirsten prior to the day of check-in. Because of all of my positive experiences with Airbnb - and because of all of Kirsten's positive reviews and quick responses prior - I figured she would reach out to me the day of with all of the details. After 12 hours of travel I emailed her letting her know I was in the area and would be at the Airbnb in 1-2 hours. No response. I called and texted her too, but her phone was off or she was out of cell service. I then drove to the Airbnb and no one was home. I left and came back an hour later and still no one was there. It wasn't until 8 pm (8 hours later) that I was able to get in touch with other sub-tenants staying on the property who called Kirsten's husband to let him know we were trying to check in. He gave the sub-tenants the access code and did not reach out to me until the following day to let me know Kirsten was camping in Yosemite with no cell service and to provide his cell phone number. A very disappointing experience that could have been avoided if Kirsten and her husband had coordinated with one another prior to Kirsten leaving the area. We will not be returning and unfortunately cannot recommend this place to others (although it is clear Kirsten has paid a lot of attention to detail at her place) but the stress of not knowing if we were going to have somewhere to stay that night and the response afterwards was not worth the stay.
