There are a lot of pros and cons to this listing. You should know when booking that the space is a sectioned off area of the house that the hosts live in so the living room shares a wall between their living space and your rental. Because of this, we never wanted to spend any time in the living room because the house is extremely quiet so the sound carries quite a bit. My friends and I hung out in the bedroom furthest from their side of the house because it wasn’t comfortable to have personal talks or use quiet voices with someone sleeping on the other wall. We were all woken up by a screaming child at 7am and the hosts gave us earplugs the first night but does anybody really want to wear earplugs to sleep or wake up at 7am on vacation?
We all sort of understood when booking that we would be renting an entire house so I just wanted to clarify that in the reviews if that is something that matters to you.
Pros:
The beds are super comfortable
It’s very clean and well-decorated
The AC is great and has a very modern digital thermostat
The shower pressure is good
The hosts provided many towels and linens
Light-blocking curtains
Cons:
There is no kitchen so the only sink is in the bathroom (which is tough to get to when you have a full house)
We really longed for a full length mirror somewhere in the house - it was tough getting ready in the mornings with only small cosmetic mirrors or the mirror on the medicine cabinet
The neighbors across the street keep their dog in a crate outside in a crate all night, which you can hear from your rooms
The house is very, very quiet - you can hear your bunk mates when they move in their beds
I think 3 stars is how we all felt. There’s a lot of good, also a lot of awkward
