I was really excited for this trip, and having read previous reviews about the host I was looking forward to meeting her and having a great stay. Unfortunately, she was not at all how she describes herself and I did not experience what some other guests raves about. When my friend and I arrived I called the host because she asked me to do so to open the gate and let us park in her lot. She was super rude in the phone, and sounded irritated that I had called even though those were her instructions to me. Finally, after some issues with her fuse being blown out she was able to get the back gate open. She didn’t not bother to wait for us to park to introduce herself or welcome us. We had directions on the app as to where to find our room and the code to get in and that was it. After we got into our room I sent her a message on the app expressing our excitement to being in NOLA and thanked her for getting the gate open, no reply. The room itself was not as described. The mattress for example is much wider than the bed frame so it hangs off the edge and not long enough to reach the foot of the bed frame so you have to be extra careful to not hit yourself on the wooden frame. The day after arrival I tried to take a shower and the water had one setting: SCORCHING HOT. No matter what I tried to do, it would not get warm or cold. The bathroom sink kept getting clogged/would not drain properly. I also noticed that the hand soap no matter how much I pumped into my hands wouldn’t get bubbly, so I opened the container only to discover it had been diluted so much it was almost all water. The room itself felt dark, and not the sunny/bright room show in photos. The worst part was when it was time to check out. I grabbed the gate clicker to let myself out and her system is you must come back in to leave it so other guests can also use it. As I walked out to my car I saw the host. She didn’t ask me how my stay was, her first words were: “Did you leave the $21 on the table?” And I was literally clueless about what she was talking about. And I said I’m sorry but what $21? And then she said, I charge $7 per day to park in my backyard lot. I was honestly super surprised because I didn’t remember reading that in her ad. I told her I was out of cash and I asked if she could charge me via Airbnb and she said no that I had to give her cash (which by the way breaks airbnb policy). THEN SHE LITERALLY TOOK THE CLICKER OUT OF MY HAND AND DIRECTED ME TO AN ATM...
