First, the host was excellent at communicating and did her best trying to accommodate me.
Nice sized kitchen and bathroom. Good fridge. I did not cook or shower here. More explanation below.
Unfortunately, this was advertised as a first level and it is actually a basement with no walkout. You walk down a flight of stairs to get to it. It is very damp and only one egress window opened, but there was no breeze as it was about 4’ up to reach the ground. The host did offer fans and a dehumidifier. Unfortunately, it was still sticky at night. Also, quite noisy with fans and dehumidifier on. Also, I walked in to 3 dead bugs and 2 spiders in the bathroom. Wasn’t too big a deal since I’m from Minnesota and understand how this happens in damp basements. Had I known this was a basement, I never would have booked.
I had planned to stay for 5 weeks and I was going to work from there. Unfortunately, audio in teams didn’t work. I know it was the location, because I didn’t have problems anywhere else I worked from. I had to leave each day in order to work. This wasn’t sustainable for five weeks. I only lasted 4 days. I ended up showering at my family’s house since that is where I ended up having to work every day. I mostly ate there or out. Was too damp and sticky to be comfortable relaxing at the Airbnb.
The couch was VERY uncomfortable. You can feel every support piece when sitting.
I want to reiterate that the host did try to accommodate me and was VERY quick with communication.
