1) Jennifer is not a host, she works for a corporate leasing company where this apartment is located.
2) While in a convenient part of town. This apartment's location is somewhat shady. There is a gay strip club across the street and there are constantly street people just hanging out in front of the building smoking cigs. Was fine, just uncomfortable.
3) The apartment is very noisy. From every footstep in the apartment above (wood floors and no carpet), to the the elevator (I was in the corner apartment and it would wake me up nightly). The couple arguing across the hall. After a couple of complaints with mgmt doing nothing, I just moved out and considered it a sunk cost.
4) There is no cable TV, just a heads up. Internet service sucked and was even out for a few days. In addition to a very generous service fee ~$200. The host tried to hit me up for another $150 for "utilities" over a week after I moved out. Its like a slum lord found airbnb, seriously.
