We had a good and bad experience with this listing. First let me describe all the good parts:
The Good:
1. Host was fantastic with quick responses and resolution of issues
2. The location of the listing is close to the subway which takes you directly to Manhattan
3. Free street parking right outside the house
The Bad:
1. The house is not very clean. Bathroom was dirty, and we didn't feel like using the kitchen or the living room since our overall perception of the house was that it wasn't clean. For the price we paid - $143 CAD/night we didn't feel it was worth it at all.
2. The house is on the ground floor and entrance is through under a set of stairs which is a bit creepy with no lights to get in after dark.
Overall:
We felt we should inform the host about our issues after the first day there. (We didn't live in at all, we ended up staying at a friend's place for the first night). After we informed Whitney, she immediately offered us a refund for the second night that was still unused. We found this to be fair.
