Pros:
Host was very communicative prior to our stay. Great location! Plenty of towels, dishes, fridge space, etc. A/C worked well. Nice to have bagels and bananas offered.

Cons:
During our stay they were unreachable via technology (app difficulties and we do not have cell phones).

Futon should not be considered a viable sleep option--it has hard springs a quarter inch (or less) below the exterior layer. Even sleeping on top of a layer of pillows (from bedroom) made the bed barely sleep-able.

No properly installed, working smoke-detectors. (Host expressed surprise to learn this after our stay and said they would remedy the problem.)

Back door was found open (not due to us), and it is very difficult to properly close and lock (but it *does* lock, eventually).
