Read the reviews, check. Booked it, check. Stayed almost 2weeks, check. Hosting done right, check. The negative reviews had some valid points, but I found them to be very minor (or already corrected). Communicate with your host and they go above and beyond to make sure your stay is enjoyable. Don't be jerk and just make a list bad things to review and not inform the host. That's unfair to them and the next guests. Hint: Some of these guest reviews, I guess, were under the impression they were going to stay at a $300/night 5 diamond/emerald resort...seriously? I felt safe (never locked my doors once), I felt welcome (daily pleasant interaction's), and all my needs were taken care of (either by talking to them {because humans should be able to still do this} or message. 10/10 Would book again (I actually have for another 2wks)! Amazing, safe, clean, great location for me (hospital district 10-15min). Also, local knowledge for any needs you may have.
