All in all, a great stay. Kimberley was very responsive to questions and the location suited us perfectly.
While the "cleaning fee" seemed a bit steep, at least it's put to good use as the unit was extremely clean! Certainly no problems in that regard!
A few relatively minor "criticisms":
- being in a basement unit it was a bit chilly. There wasn't an individual thermostat with the unit, but when I contacted Kimberley, she did turn things up quickly. (But then the next evening it was cool again.)
- the water heater kept the water *just* (but not quite) warm enough for a comfortable shower/bath.
- the mattresses and pillows were very firm (personal preference whether this is good or bad)
- the TV is a "Smart TV", so you have no local "antennae" television. Any services you use at home, be sure to bring your log-ins and passwords.
- the kitchen is well stocked with necessary dishes, pots, pans, etc., but there are no simple "conveniences" like a few spices, condiments, etc. (with the exception of a bit of olive oil and some pepper). So if you plan to cook, in addition to your groceries, you'll need the extras. On the plus side, all the kitchen appliances seemed very nice, new, functional, and clean.
Again, the above issues were minor details to an otherwise positive AirBnB experience!
