We had a total of 7 people staying at this listing for 3 months for summer internships. The house is great, and the location is nice. We have no real complaints about the actual house.
For a short term stay, I'm sure this would be a great stay. But for a long term stay, we began to have some problems with the host, Christina. When you first arrive in the Airbnb, you'll be given a binder with rules. In it, she states that it will cost $45-50 a night for any guests you want over, but we were able to negotiate it down to $15 a night. Christina will keep track of everyone who is entering and leaving the premise through the front door camera. We didn't have overnight guests often, but this was still an unexpected charge. I understand why this charge would make sense for those who have a short stay, as in that case, those guests should be on the listing. But for a long-term, 3 month stay, this rule doesn't make sense. The toilets will also get clogged, so you must use 1-ply toilet paper in order to make sure the pipes don't clog.
At the end of the stay, you will be sent a list of things to do before leaving, such as opening up windows and throwing away trash. My group finished everything on the list and spent the entire morning doing extra cleaning of the kitchen, bathrooms, and vacuuming. We stripped the beds and scrubbed down all the appliances and counters. After we left, Christina tried to take away part of our security deposit for extra cleaning charges. Part of these cleaning charges included $10 per offsite load of laundry the cleaners had to do. I want to note that the amount of laundry left to do was 1 set of bedding for each guest. When discussing these charges with her, she asked us if we had cleaned the inside of the kitchen drawers, the windows, and the windowsills. This seems like a weird thing to expect an Airbnb guest to clean, especially after we had completed everything on her list. After disputing this with Airbnb, Airbnb decided against charging us, and let us keep the security deposit.
I would recommend that future guests take photos of everything before moving in and before moving out. Christina seemed to have an unreasonable idea of what ordinary wear and tear looked like, especially after 3 months of normal use.
I want to reiterate that the house and location itself is very nice, but the problem lies mostly with the host.
