The street didn't feel particularly safe, especially at night. Some abandoned houses around. Not really a problem but would have been nice if the description mentioned it. The room itself was smaller than it looked in the pictures.
I tend to appreciate airbnb stays for having a host, I do not like the anonymity of big hotels. But since Alex is never there and only sends you messages with the necessary info about the house (that's really it, he does not even bother to send the standard courtesies like "I hope you will have a nice stay"), this feels very automated. Besides, it felt strange, having two other airbnb guests in the house but no hosts.
