Pro: very close to a park and my church and other stores such as tjmaxx and the mall. and it’s also in a quiet neighborhood. The house is clean and has security cameras. Clean bedroom and bathroom.
Con: the kitchen is not for use at all, the living room also is prohibited. I was told by the owner of the place that Airbnb guests are not allowed to be in the living room or go to the kitchen. On their listing it stated that kitchen can be in use to microwave meals and grab utensils. However, on day 3 when I asked where the kitchen was I wasn’t provided the opportunity to get any utensil from the kitchen which was on my birthday to eat the cake I had with me. Eating out is not an option for me even though I don’t cook often. As an Airbnb host myself, I would never list my place and charge half a rental cost for my guests not to be provided with the necessities they need if they booked my place. I booked 2 weeks stay and it became clear that I could not use the kitchen at all, and not even a microwave. I was told by the owner of the house that they would not refund the money if I decide to leave…and I need to contact Airbnb. The Airbnb rep saw the hosts listing listed kitchen for use but the host verbally told me no. The airbnb rep then contacted the host about the issue and the hosts confirmed to the rep that the guests can’t use the common areas of their home. I had to scramble and relocate to a different airbnb which was very inconvenient for me. Airbnb took care of me and refunded part of the funds after it was clear that the hosts were not going to make adjustments. The room has no television so you can’t watch tv as well. Room has no set of table and chair for reading or studying or sitting even to eat.
