I have never had such a negative encounter with a host or left a bad review in all the years I have been using Airbnb! I initially booked the reservation with a note stating I would need a late check-out. She accepted the booking and when I asked again about the late check out said, No. Why would someone accept a booking they can't accommodate? Oh, so she can TAKE A 50% CANCELLATION FEE FOR DOING ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! I pleaded with her for a full refund a few hours after booking since she could not accommodate my late check-out and she said no and that it's Airbnb policy. So I went THROUGH Airbnb to negotiate the refund and she COMPLETELY IGNORED MY REQUEST! Of course AIRBNB does little to protect guests. I decided to stay at the Airbnb but I had to find somewhere else to stay after the check-out and I am so glad I did.
THIS PLACE IS DISGUSTING! The bathrooms are atrocious. They remind me of dorm bathrooms except it looks like they haven't been clean for some time. I am convinced the bed sheets and comforter ARE NOT WASHED every time! I honestly did not feel safe the 1 night I slept there and had a hard time going to sleep. You enter the compound from an unsecured backyard door that anyone can get through. The main door has a code at least. They keep the windows open so anyone can easily climb through. You do not have a key to lock your room door when you step out so any number of people staying in the house can just open your door and TAKE YOUR THINGS. I know the price is extremely tempting but I do not think it's worth even that.
The Pros: the neighborhood is quiet, has good proximity to everything and there is parking available — the bare minimum.
I do not recommend this place and will never book again!
