I'm going to be honest, the area is rough. Now I'm already not from the best neighborhood back home, but even what I'm used to wasn't as bad as this. On arriving our first night there, a couple across the street was in a screaming match that resulted in the offended parties laptop getting smashed over a windshield. My car being parked on the street across from them raised some seriously red flags for me, now, thankfully nothing happened to my car, but I don't want to have to worry about this while I'm out, and it was a huge bummer for me. I get this isn't the hosts fault, and I'm not blaming them, but I would have felt a lot more secure had private parking been available. The host is also aware on some level that this location necessitates extra security, because conveniently left out of the photos of this property is a barricade on the back door. Yeesh, I felt like an extra on The Walking Dead after seeing it. The pillowcases were dirty with mascara stains, and the sheets barely fit any of the mattresses, so we slept on them without a sheet by the end of most nights. If it's the price that attracted you to this listing, I'd say that's the best this listing has going for it, just please be aware of the area and what you're committing to.
