We were very happy at first as the host was attentive and helped solve some issues that we had. Initially there were no window coverings and when we said that we were uncomfortable with the lack of privacy, Melissa addressed that immediately. However, we started to feel uncomfortable when we realized that she was coming into the apartment when we weren't there.
When we checked in, she said we had control over the air conditioner and did not specify what temperature we could have it at. The next time we came back to the apartment the remote was gone. Later when she found it, she texted us that the temperature should be much higher than what we had set it at. It would have been nice to learn that first.
The main reason this is getting two stars is because in her house rules booklet it states to respect nighttime quiet hours. We respected those rules however we did not receive the same courtesy from her. On one particular night we realized that she was having a small gathering and the music continuously got louder and louder. The apartment is on the lower level so we could hear the bass and lyrics through the floor it was so loud. It seemed like some of the guests, possibly children, were also stomping up and down as well. We were very upset and kept checking the time. Thankfully it ended around 10:40. If it had gone on past 11:00 we would have contacted her about this. Obviously she's allowed to continue to live her life even if she is hosting guests, but she didn't know if we were the type of people that like to go to bed early. Either way it was disrespectful.
