We had a good stay at Garrett's place. The outdoor space in the back is wonderful. It was a 10-15 minute walk from a few shops/cafes and uphill on the way back, so not ideal with kids if you don't have a car. There was a bunch of of construction around so you have to cross the street in spots to walk down the hill.
I was disappointed that I had to email the host the morning we were arriving to get instructions for check-in and slow communication otherwise. Also disappointed to find a bag of previously refrigerated food left out on the dining table from earlier guests and a full dishwasher to empty upon our arrival. For a $100 cleaning fee, also don't expect to be asked to strip the beds before departure.
