A few days before our arrival, Rafer informed us of a plumbing issue they had that resulted in having to tear up some of the wooden floorboards in the unit. Though they weren't able to replace the flooring before our stay, everything in the unit was still fully functional and we were offered a discount for the inconvenience. We did not experience any plumbing issues during our 6 night stay, but after being asked by our host to switch out the 2-ply toilet paper for 1-ply juuuuuust in case, we did find ourselves wondering if this could be a reoccurring issue.
We had a late arrival and a jam packed itinerary each day, so having our own private entrance with self check-in, as well as being located in a central area with public transportation only blocks away was ideal. The kitchen was fully stocked with a few basic breakfast items, dishes and cookware. The only additions I would have made would be a frying pan and some salt and pepper!
We didn't get a chance to interact much with our hosts because we had many places to go and people to see each day, but both Channing and Rafer were very communicative before, during, and after our stay. The unit was everything we needed it to be.
