Check in was super easy.
pictures are VERY deceiving.
House is very old so it does have a smell but that’s totally fine. It needs a lot of work and updates. There isnt any TVs in the rooms as the pictures indicate.
Yard needs maintenance as well.
First problem we had was that the pull out sofa was broke and wouldn’t pull out. Owner said he would come out the next day to fix it but since he wasn’t concerned with it till next day we had to make do with an air mattress that luckily was available. No sheets are provided for the sofa bed or air mattress (that we could find) so be sure to bring some, good thing we had.
***During the night we found that the air mattress had a hole in it so he was left sleeping on the couch in the middle of the night.
The owner did bring an extra air mattress the following day but we never saw him and he never attempted to fix the sofa couch.
We was left with half a roll of toilet paper on each bathroom for 7 ppl. 😳 however, the owner did bring us some more only after we had bought some ourselves.
Hallway bathroom door doesn’t lock, barely closes. You have to put the chair against the door for privacy.
Soap in bathroom was runny low so instead of replacing it with a full bottle it was filled up with water.
Dishes in cabinets were FILTHY. Had to hand wash everything we used.
Terrible sewer/rotten egg smell coming from the sink, we later found out the trash disposal doesn’t work so that’s prob where the smell is coming from.
Lamp in living area was broken.
Since everything seemed to be half way cleaned I was super worried about the sheets on the beds but those were decent and smelled clean. Beds aren’t very comfy but for our short stay they were fine. Lots of stains on the duvet and decor pillows.
Locations: Broadway is 2.5 miles from the house so to walk, it would take about 40 mins. Uber/lifts weren’t super expensive depending on the time but we was hoping to be the 1.5 mile away as described.
Overall, our stay in his house was decent. Obviously some things could be better but we only stayed 2 nights so we managed.
