Cons: The place looks a lot more worn down comparing to the pictures. The first thing I saw when I open the drawer was a roach. However the host was kind enough to prepared some roach baits that I used to keep them away. I’ve encountered 2 roaches in my week staying there. The washer and dryer were not usable. The dining table is slanted so it was a bit of an inconvenience as well. The neighborhood seems sketchy but I didn’t see or hear anything irregular.
Pros: The place’s relatively clean (aside from the roaches). The location is good, only a short drive to downtown. Joe is very communicative and friendly. The biggest plus would be the price. Even though there’re many downsides, it’s acceptable if price is taken into consideration.
The place has potential. I really hope Joe would do something about the downsides and would love to come back when that happens.
