Stay away from this place for the reasons intra (below):
1. The shower 🚿 is short and not tall enough for tall people.
2. You have to ask for a towel and wash cloth, after booking, when one should be provided automatically.
3. The bathroom had absolutely no body wash or soap available, contrary to the host's amenities listed. I would consider this intentionally duplicitous on their part.
4. The most important part of any stay is a comfortable mattress. Unfortunately, Their mattress is horrible. One of the guests agreed with me and said that you can feel the springs in the mattress.
It's really sad because the mattress hurt my back. Yeah. The mattress that they have is some mattress that you would give a visitor that you want to leave your house after 2 days or you would give a small kid or to somebody who couldn't afford a decent mattress is the one that they have.
But because she is a merchant, allegedly or it appears that she doesn't care about your comfortability but want to capitalize.
5. I was in the bunk bed, but the room was attached to the kitchen. Imagine going into your kitchen, and then looking to your left and seeing 6 mattresses. Then, imagine sleeping in those mattresses where people are constantly coming in-and-out turning the lights on and off in the wee hours of the night; closing and opening the back door; going into the refrigerator waking you up. This place is worse than a prison for profit where they stack inmates on top of each other with stark living conditions to capitalize.
I can see having six beds in multiple rooms but in the kitchen? Come on. And, if so, disclose it before you book it. Misrepresentation?
6. One of the other guests and I got a parking ticket for parking on the side of the street, where the host told us to park. I would recommend parking in the parking space behind the house, So you don't risk being ticketed. I mentioned to the host that I got a ticket, and she didn't even reply and say I'm sorry or anything. The communication was terrible; the only feedback that I got from her was when I wanted to book more nights, but I told her that I had already booked somewhere else because she took too long to reply....
7. If you park in the back, be careful because there are nails in the door. When I opened it, I got stuck by one and got injured last night. 😔
The salient nails definitely exposes others to a risk of harm especially at night. This is the epitome of negligence because she is a merchant, who legally is responsible for maintaining a safe environment. This is because invitees are owed the highest legal duty by the premises owner/occupier, who must exercise reasonable care to discover and prevent hazards that could hurt invitees.
She did not discover the nail in the door outside or knew and didn't inform me to keep me from harming myself.
Therefore, she is liable for negligence (a tortious claim).
8. Lastly, the checkout time is absolutely too early. You have to check out at 9:00 a.m. Most places allow you to check out at 11:00 a.m. and some 12:00 p.m.
Moreover, because I worked late last night I asked the host if I can check out at 11:00 am, And they said absolutely not. Another reason I asked them is because the place was not booked fully and there where 5 empty beds, in addition to people waking me up at closing the kitchen door to go outside I couldn't sleep well. They were absolutely not accommodating and just terrible people.
Oh and I forgot one of the male hosts in the house disrespectfully told one of the guests who came in and didn't lock the door to lock it because he was in a dangerous neighborhood and people could come in and harm them.
It's not what you say but how you say it. And he definitely had no tact in his tone.
I have a car but their location doesn't appear to be close to public transportation.
You've been warned.
