The place is cute and in a convenient location. The front desk ladies at Spa Vive are nice and helpful. However, there are a few things you should be aware of before you book.
First, between the loud sounds of the critters outside (which of course is not the host’s fault) and the neighbor’s outdoor lights shining in, it was a pretty poor night’s sleep. Also, the second night Spa Vive’s other Airbnb left their outdoor light on, so it was shining in our side windows along with the lights from the front window. Curtains would really help this issue.
Secondly, while it was clear the space had been basically cleaned, there was visible grime in the bathroom. Also, we were only left with a quarter roll of toilet paper with no replacement roll. Luckily we realized and were able to go ask for more before the spa closed. Hopefully they give these notes to the housekeeper.
This is minor but the towels smelled like smoke. Like they hung them dry while someone was barbecuing.
Lastly, bugs were definitely an issue. I left an item of worn clothing outside my suitcase and came back a couple hours later and it was covered in ants. Also, I woke up the second morning at 4:45 to my husband yelling out in surprise at finding a giant beetle crawling over us while we tried to sleep. We weren’t able to set it free, so I think it’s still hiding under the bed.
After two nights, we decided to cut our trip short and check out before our third and final night. If you just need a place to stay, it will work for you, but we wouldn’t book it again.
