My family stayed at Carissa's place for a week while I was in town for business. Overall it was a positive experience, just shy of five stars.
Pros
- Cute, well-decorated, well-stocked house with a nice backyard. The backyard was a bonus since it's barely advertised in the description!
- TV included Roku with Netflix and other streaming services.
- Updated washer and dryer on the back patio, so they don't take up space in the house.
- Great location — walkable to downtown and a short drive to Tanforan mall.
- We were always able to find street parking right in front of the house.
- Carissa was very responsive when I messaged with a couple asks.
Cons
- Floor was a bit sticky and grimy, especially the kitchen area. We had to wash our 1-year-old's hands and feet every few hours because they would turn black.
- Wifi was not very reliable even after restarting the modem and router. I ended up using my phone as a hotspot because I couldn't take Zoom calls otherwise.
- On the first night, someone or something was making loud noises outside (it sounded like repeatedly opening and closing a garbage can) that made it hard to sleep.
