Book elsewhere and don't let the low price reel you in.
In the host's defense, I did not take the time to read his listing due to being busy with work, so I missed where he strongly emphasizes that he doesn't want anyone booking his rooms that have vehicles, threatens to cancel your booking with a refund if you have a car, and then says that if you have one to park literally on a whole other street and walk 2 minutes to his house. His rules are high strung and ridiculous. Some I laughed at, and others just grieved me. For a little tiny room in a garage you think someone would be more hospitable and kind seeking to help others out. I did come with a vehicle as I drive for Lyft and didn't go through everything, but if I had known this man was as snarky, controlling and rude as he comes off I would have never booked here ever. This feels like selfish, controlling, narcissistic vibes. I was so uncomfortable that I left my booking early and didn't even stay until the morning.
For what it is, it's a great idea, nice little room he put together with a TV, microwave, fridge, lamp and AC that is EXTREMELY affordable and convenient, and I appreciate him for that - but a big part of Air BnB is being a good host and the customer service experience as well.
The restroom smells like decaying rotten eggs every time you walk in due to the eco friendly compost toilet. I don't know where everything goes, but you can smell everything as if it's just rotting under the house or something. It's disgusting. That's the only flaw with the restroom, that and how the sink isn't big enough to brush your teeth comfortable. Seems like it's just for hand washing. I had to spit in the trash can.
If he were more kind and a better person I would've given this 4 stars, but all those unnecessary rules and regulations, threatening guests that if they order food delivery then they'd better have the dasher let them know when they arrive or they won't get their food is so ugly and rude. This guy has issues. I didn't experience disrespect from him personally, but I left early because I don't respect people like that and I'm not putting up with that crap.
People who are working all day just want a nice warm bed to come to, not be told to leave their car on another street and walk tirelessly all the way to his house for what? There's cars parked all down the street already, I don't see what the problem is. The rooms are a nice idea, but he's not very hospitable or kind, is snarky and mean. I advise you to please book and pay your respects somewhere else, the low rate isn't worth it.
