1. There is no garbage in the place (except a tiny like 1 foot bathroom one) and the garbage that is outside that they suggest people use outside is overflowing and smelly and has flies gathered.
2. Only one tiny bathroom face mirror, no full length mirror.
3. The windows are broken and don’t open - literally not a single window opened. Not ideal given there’s zero air flow in this unit - it’s a lovey cool 65 outside and this place feels about 85 and stagnant. There is a large fan that helps but I sat with the front door wide open for 20 minutes each evening before I could comfortably get into bed.
4. The front door has a glass window with no frosting or covering. You’re laying in bed / getting changed and anyone walking by can see in (and seeing as how it both faces the street and the house main door is immediately next to this one there’s a relatively high probability someone will walk by). Not to mention the sun comes pouring in in the morning. I hung paper towel over it for some privacy.
4 The duvet cover smelled of BO and there was a gross stain on it. I immediately took it off the bed and couldn’t sleep with it.
5. More of a functional/aesthetic choice but there’s only one sink in the place (bathroom) and it’s one of those decorative waterfall kind of faucets. My standard water bottle didn’t fit under the faucet to fill it up and the dribbling water flow makes it very difficult to do any “kitchen”-like activities in it.
Finally, I e-mailed the host about these concerns to try to discuss them weeks before leaving this review. I waited until the last possible day I would be allowed to leave this review and have heard nothing.
The location is great, the bed was pretty comfortable (disregarding the bedding) and checking in was easy. These are the only positives I've got for this place.
