The good: the hosts were relatively responsive. The rooms were nicely designed, centrally located, and clean. Great restaurants and grocery spots around. There were cool details like set of pots & pans, interesting books, new Tupperware, brand new appliances, Nest temperature control.
The meh: the august lock system is nice in concept but in execution worked only 2/4 times that I used it... the other times I had to use the pin pad after the August lock app indicated that it was jammed. One of these situations was where two unruly guys were hanging outside on the stairsteps at nighttime catcalling me and the lock took 5 tries before it became unjammed and I was able to enter... not the host's fault per se but I think the August app needs to be troubleshooted further- you can avoid this "jamming" by just using the pinpad from the beginning and avoiding the app.
Secondly, I asked if there was some sort of air mattress or sleeping bag because I was staying with two guys who I cannot share the beds with. The hosts didn't really answer my question (only reiterated what's in the description) so I ended up purchasing a sleeping bag via amazon now. The number of towels/etc also only reflected 2 rather than 3 guests, as indicated by rsvp. I should clarify that this might have been my oversight in booking, so I didn't fault the hosts for it on my rating.
Finally, the bedroom is not truly a separate bedroom- it has a true wall but no door separating it from the living space. Further, the bathroom is accessible only via the bedroom. Just something that needed to be clearly detailed in the descriptions.
