I hate to leave a bad review, but if I had known some of these things, I would have known this Airbnb wouldn't have been ideal for me.
CONS
Location: Although across from the police department, I didn't feel safe. A lot of people are going in and out. There's a rule to lock the door behind you, but no one ever did. I saw no security cameras in the home, so that was scary with so many suspicious characters coming in and out.
Dallas Room:
*Bed lining was dirty. (stains & hair) Wash and dryer were available, so I washed them.
*Roaches
*It's an old house, so of course, the floors creaked. I recommend earplugs if you're a light sleeper. My room was next to the dogs and roosters next door. Dogs barked up until midnight, and roosters crow at 7 am.
*Bring your bath towels and washcloths. Also, bring shower shoes. There are a lot of rooms in this house. 7-8, I think. People are not the cleanest.
PROS
Common areas are kept clean.
The bed was comfortable.
The host was available. We lost power one morning, and he was there within 10 mins of me messaging him.
Water bottles were provided.
The water for the shower was hot. (I recommend getting up early to shower first.)
