There were very few good things about this stay.
PROS: (1) The host always responded. (2) The host was always pleasant when responding. (3) Check-In/Check-Out was easy and straight forward.
CONS: (1) The floors were dirty (and you are expected to remove your shoes upon entering). (2) The bed in room #2 was rickety with a leaning leg (the host did try to fix it). (3) Room #2 is very stuffy as it has no window (a fan is provided, yet it was covered in dust). (4) The bathroom was dirty and had no bath mat outside the shower so other guests left the floor soaking wet, which means you are responsible for mopping the floor or slipping on a wet floor (your choice). (5) There is a lovely sign on the dry erase board telling you to not only clean up after yourself (which is standard) but also leaves details as to where to find all the cleaning supplies, however you find yourself cleaning up after yourself, the guests before you, and those that are there with you (as it wasn’t clean when we arrived). (6) You are charged a cleaning fee (a lot of places do as well) but there is no evidence that the place was ever cleaned prior to our arrival. (7) You are asked to empty the trash from your room into the “outside” trash can (again something that should fall under the “cleaning” fee). (8) The cleaning utensils (mop, broom, etc.) are filthy with hair caked in them. (9) There’s a shovel, what appears to be a bag of dirt, and an old, moldy looking microwave box to one side of the entrance and baskets (as in plural) full of laundry on the other. (10) The table you are expected to eat on is, you guessed it, disgusting. You can see where an attempt was made as whatever was on there was just smeared around.
I would not recommend this stay to anyone. I have stayed several places over the years from hotels, couch surfing, full Bed and Breakfasts, to Airbnbs and never have I even encountered a place that was this dirty upon arrival. Simple cleaning is something you should not have to complain about when paying to stay someplace. They are asking way too much to stay in a place when you have to do all the cleaning yourself. UNACCEPTABLE!
