Melissa is a very nice host, who goes out of her way to make you feel cared for. She keeps the duplex stocked with food, coffee, toiletries, ziploc bags, etc. The home has been in her family for several generations which is very neat. She was very responsive to any questions, and texted to check on us every day.
I am from the suburbs, so the urban location took a little getting used to but we had no problems with safety, leaving a brand new car parked there with no issues. The place only has a small window unit which cools only one room, so the kitchen and bathroom have no air. It was very hot in both of those rooms and I cannot imagine how hot it would be in June through August.
The bed is very comfortable, but the sheets were not cotton and slipped off of the mattress each night on both sides of the bed because they were kind of slippery.
To be fair though, the price is cheap and the issues noted above should not deter anyone from staying there as long as you are not looking for fancy or super cute. The unit she has that is attached to this one is gorgeous though.
