I'm trying to be balanced in my review. There were things I liked (the size of the house, the responsiveness of the host, being near Lydgate), but a few things that I really had trouble with.
(1) the traffic, it's in a highly congested area (literally every single drive was in traffic).
(2) the noise, i never slept well even one night (including neighbors dogs barking, motorbikes, traffic noise, etc). someone set of fireworks on night like five feet from the house.
(3) the kitchen had an ant infestation that was awful, making it impossible to cook at any time during my stay.
These things would be fine it I was expecting them (aside from the ants). Because I was not expecting them, they really put a damper on my stay.
I wish I had known these things prior to my stay, which is why I'm writing them here.
I think setting reasonable expectations should be a core tenet of AirBnB... it's not that these things are unreasonable overall, it's whether I can expect them that's critical.
