Overall our stay was just...okay. When we arrived, the parking space in back was not marked and we had to guess which one made the most sense and then message the host to confirm. He explained the sign was broken and still needed to be fixed. Our check in was at 3pm and I informed our host we would be arriving a little later into the evening. We arrived at 6pm and the space had clearly not been cleaned yet. We messaged the host who did respond in 10-15 min, stated the cleaner "got called away" and was on their way back. We changed our clothes in the dirty space, then put our luggage back in our car and went to dinner. The space was then cleaned by 8pm for our return.
Repairs could be made to several areas of the home. There are cords climbing the wall behind the bedroom TV that look very messy. There was no instruction on how to turn on AC vs. heat. It ended up getting quite cold out during our stay end of September and having the heat on would have been nice. Space was cleaned, but a deep clean is needed at this point - felt grimy and neglected. Amenities were lacking, felt like we were renting a room with the bare minimum to get by. Dishware is super sparse with a dirty water glass in the dishwasher and the other two dusty deep in a neglected cabinet. The other glass dishware was awkward and not meant for a regular drink (1 small wine glass, martini glasses, short triangle shaped glasses that do not fit much in them). Very small bottle of dish soap with old dirty sponge for dishes. Almost empty hand soap in bathroom, none in kitchen. Kleenex would have been a nice addition. Towels were adequate amount for our stay (but again, bare minimum) and there was no makeup towel that the instructions on bathroom wall reference.
In comparison to a significant amount of Airbnb spaces I've stayed in, this space unfortunately felt uninviting and neglected. I think with a little more thought and planning it could be really nice, but right now it's falling short by a lot.
Also - side note. This space is located next to a busy city hospital and there are frequent sirens throughout the day and night. If that is something that would make your stay more difficult, may want to consider a location further from downtown.
