Shay was a good host! She is funny and in tune with how her guests are doing. However, do keep in mind that the place is almost never clean (I had to clean 3 times a week because it was getting so so dirty), so if you’re not comfortable with vacuuming and doing your host’s dishes because you need to use something that they used and haven’t cleaned, I would not recommend it.
But, if you don’t care about that, the place is great!
‼️ A few tips: bring an eye mask for sleeping because the curtain in the bedroom is paper thin and you will wake up, try to not walk alone at night since it is not a safe neighborhood (although during the day is fine), she DOES NOT have a microwave or a coffee machine so keep that in mind, bring soap as she will not provide it and even tell you off for using it, and I would also advice you to bring a towel, because during the 5 weeks we stayed there we used 2 towels TOTAL and although we reused them, when we asked for other because they were getting to the point where they didn’t even dry, she told us to either go to a laundry place and clean them because she wasn’t going to do it, or just keep on using a dirty and wet towel.
Other than that, loved the stay.
