Gabriel’s place is in a lovely building in an excellent location. The photos are accurate and the place is spacious with nice decor. Some parts were not quite as tidy or clean as I expected- specifically the rug really needed a vacuum and the tea bags looked like they’d been thrown onto a heap on a plate in the kitchen. Gabriel’s communication was very detailed but we still had trouble finding the right lockbox as despite the video it isn’t clear exactly where it is. We were surprised to receive a message after our stay asking to pay $350 for a stain on the carpet that we didn’t cause. Our family is always extremely careful when staying anywhere and we have always let our hosts know straight away of the smallest possibility of damage. This has obviously put a major dampener on our experience. Gabriel’s insistence that guests provide copies of ID before the stay shows a level of distrust of guests which in some ways is understandable but we have been left feeling like there was an expectation of wrongdoing from the very beginning. On balance this was not a good experience.
