Hi - I wanted to share my honest opinion of the stay.
Samuel was very communicative, in the time frame he requested. He also requested I leave a 5 star review or make any requests before the end of my stay to ensure a 5 star review. I appreciated this, but I will still leave my honest review.
This will likely be my last budget Airbnb stay as they lack a sense of welcome or care. It seemed more like an income property. For the amount of income the property is bringing in, it could have some nice touches (ie. welcome basket, higher quality soap).
The checkin/out rules are strict. Don’t rely on flexibility. I arrived on a Tuesday and left on a Thursday with no flexibility. No comment on where to store luggage elsewhere either which wasn’t thoughtful.
I kept on looking at Hotel Tonight for a better stay. It seems like there are some nice mom and pop hotels in the Bywater area I’ll check out next time.
Great area though for the stay. I found the bus to be reliable to get around.
