We had a lovely time and stay for 5 nights. Dan is a very quick communicator and the home is exactly as pictured, complete with luxury branded appliances and amenities. It felt like thoughtful people used to live there, versus a stripped down or bare bones stocked accommodation like most places. Nearly everything was comfortable (firm mattress, good pillows, nice bed linens, nice kitchen items). The host left out some welcoming snacks: chocolate, sparkling water. Loved the house plants and all the orchids in bloom. Very comfortable sofas!
Some things to note:
- The towels were scratchy
- Small shower area
- The host has “do not …” laminated signs and instructions on nearly every area of the house with detailed and absurd instructions of what NOT to do, which is very intrusive and off-putting to the average human being. I understand that there likely were bad guests previously, but these signs were offensive and detract from a truly enjoyable and relaxing stay. Why do I need a sign telling me not to put eggshells in the toilet, etc.? Guests should adhere to a guide the host composes in the AirBnB listings manual and don’t need posters all over the house (and even in the stairwell of the building).
