I was very pleased with many aspects of this tiny room: it was extremely clean, towels and linens were provided, two pillows, a small rack for hanging clothes, an extender on the one available power outlet to make it possible to plug in more than one thing at a time. The host had great communication, and the instructions were timely and very clear. The room is very tiny, like the size of an average bathroom, (The small twin bed takes up about half the space) but that’s not why I’m withholding the 5th star; I was expecting that, and I didn’t need a lot of space.
The two main negative issues I had were: firstly, the mattress on the bed had what I can only describe as a longitudinal split in it. It was not very comfortable to sleep on. I stayed there two nights and the second night I slept on the bed upside down since I noticed the split/groove went further down on the “head” end; that helped, but it still not very comfortable and hard to sleep on. The second issue I had was that in the shared bathroom shower, I couldn’t get the water fully hot. It got to maybe 90 degrees F which is not hot enough for me to not shiver. If the host’s goal is to keep showers short, mission accomplished, I guess, but water not being hot enough is a personal pet peeve and would preclude me from staying here again. Maybe it’s different in the winter? I sure hope so!
Another thing worth noting is that the ceiling is low for the basement rooms (4,5,6 &7) and anyone taller than 6 feet would probably not be very comfortable- I think it was only 6.5 or 7 foot ceiling. Fine for me because I’m short but I thought it should be mentioned.
I appreciated finding someplace so close to the airport for such a great price, but I probably wouldn’t stay here again even in a different room with a fully intact mattress solely because of the water temperature. I NEED a HOT shower. But pretty much everything else was great.
