I'm a registered nurse and chose this place due to him being a physician while I was helping during the Covid crisis. The initial check in process was made EXTREMELY difficult. I did request an early check in due to working overnight but I felt harassed by him in regards to speaking over the phone before check in because the check in instructions per him were too much to type. I've stayed in plenty of AirBnBs across the world and checked in early before but have never had to speak with someone on the phone before check in. The check in instructions don't change due to an early check in. Even with me explaining my phone being broke he was asking I call from any available phone.
Upon checking in I read the welcome page which spoke about guests. My boyfriend had planned on flying in my last week so I spoke with Raman about this. He requested I change my reservation and it would be an additional $20 nightly. He wanted to do things by the book and he stated it wasn't about the money however he was willing to accept cash app for payment after I explained my reservation couldn't be modified. I ended up having to change my boyfriends flight. He did end up allowing him to stay my last 2 nights free of charge.
The pipes sounded like they were going to burst everytime the water was turned on or the toilet was flushed. The floors upstairs were paper thin. I could hear every conversation and it sounded like they were going to come through the floor.
My boyfriend came into town and the next morning while at work the owner came downstairs into the room much to my boyfriends surprise. He never knocked or said anything while walking down the stairs but quickly froze and started apologizing when he saw my boyfriend in the bed. You would assume that he would go back up the stairs out of sight and continue to say "I am sorry" but instead he stayed there, kept saying sorry and mentioned he was down there to fill the humidifier up. He mentioned that I am usually at work at this time. Before finally going back upstairs he asked my boyfriend was he okay to which he naturally said "NO". Now per the owners house rules/things to know sheet that he provides he mentions letting him know if you intend to have guest over (which I did). No where does he mention there being a need to fill either of the humidifiers. Now it's definitely safe to assume that after being here two weeks that he came into the room numerous times. Did I also mention that the steps he entered in come from inside the house (that he doesn't provide a key for you to stop this from happening) but also the entrance that you use to enter/leave through thats located inside the garage doesn't have a key either for you to use to lock the door with either.
Raman ended up texting me at 0600 but I was working and when I finally got a chance to call him he stated that he didn't realize I wasn't checking out until Saturday. I had a serious problem with this because one you've obviously been coming in here without authorization and in addition to that you have access to the application to verify check out dates. I was ready to check out but it was my last night and I still had to pack,go to work, and take care of a few things. Needless to say I would NEVER stay here again.
He then proceeded to ask if I would give him 5 stars before the conversation ended and he would give me 5 as well. If my rating is low it's because he read this review.
