My friends and I appreciated having a short overnight at Lance and Shelly’s however there were some things we were not aware of before our arrival. It definitely was more of a hostel styled experience and a lot to take in after a long day in Boston. After arriving we were promptly spoken to without much of a greeting by one of the owners who came up without much warning which surprised us. He gave us some local food recommendations which we visited a few minutes down the road. He thought I had not registered my third friend for the night and there was not another bed setup upon our arrival. After recognizing the misunderstanding they provided another bed that we had indeed paid for but it provided for a very awkward scenario. I promptly explained that we had indeed paid for it and the other owner confirmed this was the case. We were not aware that we would be sharing a common area in very close proximity with a large group of people with only one bathroom but it ended up being fairly manageable but again a bit unexpected. We also were confused that there was another door that could lock to a back staircase and did not know another apartment was connected. The other owner made it very clear to us that it was not to be locked and tried to assure us that it would be very safe. We also shortly realized that our small room did not lock very well and the walls are very thin so you hear everything your neighbors are saying and doing so it can be hard to fall asleep. Parking and carrying luggage proved to also be a bit of a hassle with crossing busy intersections later at night. That being said it proved to be good for a quick stopover but uncomfortable in some ways that was a lot to take in. We appreciated Lance and Shelley sharing their home with us.
