This is a tough one to write. Communication with John was very kind, and I'm sure we would have been friends if we had met at a bar. However, the unit was materially different from how it was listed. This is most decidedly NOT a 3BR, but rather a 2BR + den. The third "bedroom" opens up to the living room and doesn't have a closet. Definitely inappropriate for a roommate situation. I am a real estate agent and wouldn't dream of this sort of deceptive listing.

Aside from this:

Light fixtures were missing, a cabinet was broken, the backyard was overgrown with weeds and replete with a dirty table, the coffee machine had no filters, the upstairs toilet paper holder falls apart in your hand, two toilets wobble when you sit on them, the 3rd bedroom door sticks when closed all the way, and about a third of the light fixtures are upside down.

No Wifi info was provided. I was initially given the wrong password and had to ask a second time before I got the right one.

It's pretty evident that little time is taken to care for this property.

I contacted John to work things out and he ignored me. I opened a grievance with the Resolution Center and he responded by leaving what I'm sure is a pre-emptive strike with negative feedback. We were nothing but perfect guests. I've stayed at Airbnb before and had positive experiences. I would encourage everyone who needs a well-kept-up 3-bedroom unit to avoid this one, as that's not what you're getting.

Listing this as a 2+den and taking care of the issues would completely turn this around.
