I would give my stay at Dee a 3.5 rating, but as there are only whole numbers on the platform, it stays at 3. The reason for this is that the apartment is far for being well maintained or updated. This is evident in several flaws: a dated fridge that is too noisy, a stove that takes hours to cook, a rusted edge of the kitchen’s sink, a slippery bathtub and not enough electrical outlets in the bedroom. The house where the flat is located is fine and the neighborhood is lovely. There is room to park outside. I had a hard time getting my host to give me instructions for arrival; it turns out, she relies on a self-generated message that is sent 24 hours before arrival, but as I was coming to California from Europe, I needed to be sure that I was expected before going to sleep the night before departure. I repeatedly got a self-generated message saying that Dee typically looks at her messages in working hours in California, but I had no answer to my emails about arrival instructions until very late. Hosts need to consider time differences between countries; in my case, 9 hours. During and at the end of my stay, however, Dee compensated this by being very attentive and caring.
