John was SUPER responsive but his rules are super strict. He did refund me since I had to shorten my stay which was super nice of him.
Came in on business and decided to stay extra days- asked if I could have one colleague drop off their suitcase and was told there would be a separate fee if they even entered the building. Went ahead and just added an additional person to the listing which I figured they may as well stay since I am paying extra.
His tone can come off a little rude via messages. There was a camera outside my room which made me feel a little uncomfortable and made me not want to change in my actual room. You can definitely tell he does not trust his guest staying and just wants to make a quick dollar.
The place was SUPER cold and had to sleep with my coat on since you get a throw blanket and a sheet to sleep with- I didn’t want to write him or ask for anything more.
The bathroom was pretty gross- the hot water comes and goes. Definitely made me feel like I was in college again. Stains on the shower curtain, bar soap, no hand towels, etc. Again I didn’t want to write him anymore than I had to.
The location is great, neighborhood is not rough like others have mentioned. But would not stay there again.
Also I’m sure John is going to write back an interesting comment back to this review- if you need a cheap place to stay do it but if you don’t want to feel like you’re an untrustworthy college kid go somewhere else and pay the extra.
