overall I enjoyed my stay at Tony's airbnb. He was kind enough to fence in the yard for my dogs to be able to run around in, which was really nice!!
I was a long term guest, so some of these things might not apply to people only looking for an overnight or weekend stay.
- the blinds on the sliding glass door are the cheap hotel blinds. if you have curious dogs/children, these might be a headache to operate after a few days
- walk your dogs towards the west (where the sidewalks are and stray dogs aren't)
- the back door neighbors have chickens and a rooster (my dogs had a run in with a chicken and I was woken up a few times by the rooster early in the morning)
- this property sits on a lot with two other homes, and the driveway is a little narrow for some drivers (we also had issues with getting boxed in from the guests next door; something to be aware of when parking in the driveway)
- the bedrooms have closets but few hangers and no drawers to unpack clothes, so be ready to live mostly out of your luggage
- the house sits on a street that becomes an industrial area halfway down the block, with off leash guard dogs that sometimes make their way down the street (i was approached by a slightly aggressive german shepherd twice while I was getting into my car over the duration of my two month stay)
- at the time of my stay, the shower in the bathroom at the back end of the house had lukewarm water (but the other shower's temperature was just fine)
overall good value and location. the reviews that say it's in a bad neighborhood are problematic - it's a diverse working class neighborhood.
