the place is fine, close to best area in cambridge. The room was clean, spacious, with furnished well. bed and couch are comfortable, but the office chair has the seat broken.
The halls, from the first floor to the third, were dirty and with some litter.
I guess communication is an area where the host should improve.
The host shared with me instructions to get in twice and each set of instructions was contradictory. The labels on one of the door didn't report the rooms that were behind that section of the house.
It was 7 pm, I called and messaged the host several times to clarify how to get in, but to no avail because she didn't answer. I just had to try in different ways on a couple of doors, so I felt I was breaking in and that the alarm would go off. In the end, I got in.
The next morning at 7 am she said I should have called her.... then at 10 am she wrote "oh, I now heard your messages".
Uhm, OK!
Finally, the instructions I received read:
"PARKING:
No designated parking available. You can park on Massachusetts Ave OR Emily St that have 2 hours parking between 8am-6pm, then free. "
It's not free!! You have to leave after two hours, otherwise you receive a ticket for overstaying.
