Location, location, location! We were in town for an event at Dickie's Arena and loved the simple walk to and from. But little did we know just how convenient of a location it was for our trip as a whole.
The pros:
-Location can't be beat
-Both beds were extremely comfortable
-Plenty of room for 4 adults
-Secure garage parking
-Nice layout
-Great communication with host prior to arrival
-Couch/trundle in the living room was very comfortable as well
The cons:
-The place needs a deep cleaning badly. While it was clean on the surface for the most part, there is a lot of dust and dirt accumulated on fixtures, baseboards, door details, hair and dust balls behind doors when you shut them, etc. When you pay a price for cleaning, you expect it to be sparkling clean. Dirty dishes that appeared to be only rinsed off were put away in the cupboard (which is easy to miss a guest doing something like that) and an open bottle of 2 month past expiration Cheez Whiz in the cupboard.
-We locked ourselves out when we left for breakfast, which with the setup is extremely easy to do. Unfortunately, I reached out to the host via phone call, text message and Air BnB app and it took 6 hours to get a response back. While it was our own fault, it was frustrating how easy it was to do and how long it took for the host to respond.
-Only one bedside table in each room and it is more a low living room side table than an actual night stand so it was kind of a pain to use and the person on the other side of the bed didn't have anywhere to put their stuff.
-Living room layout is awkward and we had to move a couch just to be able to see the TV in the evening.
-There is a Kuerig but no coffee so be sure to bring your own.
Overall, while there were some issues, it was nothing that would not bring me back because we were comfortable, felt safe and in a great location.
