The location was not in a safe neighbourhood. I had the host herself inform me of a violent break-in in the vicinity nearby, while I was just about to check-in. The bedroom was very very cold (it is winter now) without a room heater turned on. It felt like we just walked straight into someone else’s private house/life with no clear separation of guest access/premises and the host.
Overall I could not even get proper instructions from the host as to how to use the kitchen and any other instructions. It was very rushed.
I felt very unwelcome in this property and was wondering if staying out of my brand new car in a safer neighbourhood was a better option than this bad experience?
