This Air bnb has so much potential to be an amazing place to stay. It's in a great location, easy to get to downtown, east side, and west side. However, you must be prepared for how this house is ran.
Lee, the host is well intended but very unorganized.
He runs multiple homes out of this listings. Meaning, when you show up at the address listed, you might not even be staying in that home. And every home is VERY different in cleanliness, decor, roommates, etc.
Getting check-in information in a timely manner was not provided. We had to wait 3 hours in 25 deg weather to get into the house. We got put into a house not listed on air bnb (1600 Heiman). We spent two days there before I requested to move into the 1062 house (for various reasons not super necessary to list here).
Neither house or rooms were cleaned, although claimed to be clean. I met the cleaning lady after someone moved out from a 3 month stay. Just like both rooms we moved into there was still hair all over the floors, bathroom, and baseboards. The common area's are never cleaned, although claimed to have been cleaned or told they will be cleaned and then never are.
I had to clean both rooms extensively before moving in my things.
Additionally, if you end up staying in 1602, you end up being an Air bnb guest greeter and entertainer because people constantly show up at that address with no check-in information, even when the 1602 house is full. I never wanted to leave someone out in the cold especially after their long travels... you can see the inconvenience and safety issue here.
It's also an unsafe situation because Lee relies on the people staying in the home to give new people the right keys. Some keys can unlock multiple doors/rooms in the house. Not all rooms have locks.
Items listed that are provided for the home do not exist - no hangers, no kitchen supplies, no common items. He does provided sheets and towels.
The house is a new build and has a great layout and design but not decorated or supplied by the Host.
One housemate had been living there for 9 months and everything in the house belonged to her. When I tried to address this with the Host, he assured me that their were common items but they were nowhere to be found and nothing further was provided.
With better management and organization, this could be a great place.
