upon arrival, we didn't really know what to expect. We thought the place was cute, reasonable priced and would do for our weekend away. The hideaway was clean and ready for our arrival. We read most of the reviews before booking and like said in many there is a distinct basement/pipe smell. There is little to no privacy not only because the Airbnb host lives upstairs but also another guest/guests live in the split Airbnb next to ours. The host checked in on us to make sure we had everything we needed. Following the first night, we noticed some problems with the bathroom door as well as the air. The bathroom door tends to come off the hinges very easily. Because it is a basement, there is not a lot of circulation. Therefore, the Airbnb became really hot at times. Overall, we were satisfied with the price we paid and the location from downtown.
