Hmm, Im so conflicted by this listing so I had to take a day to reflect in order to give a fair and accurate review. First I will add that there are a lot of great things about this listing, so this is not an attempt to down play it. However the one big negative about this place is so critical, that I have to mention it. Ive been using Airbnb for a long time and one thing Ive never done is giving a bad review. That being said, this isn't a bad review just a fair one!
First and most importantly this isn't a private rental , nor is it an " entire place". I booked the place last minute and the one thing I always do is check the "entire place" filter when im searching. The host was very responsive and helpful with allowing me to book quickly. However he did not mention that it wasn't an entire place until he accepted the reservation. This is more of a shared home with a private room because the only private place is your room. Me and my guest spent most of our time in the room. If it was listed correctly this would be a 5 star hands down.
Secondly, the guest occupying the second floor are elderly, VERY NICE, people. The issue with that is being a younger more energetic and naturally lively guest I almost felt as if I had to tone down a lot because my parents would not approve of me disturbing or disrespecting any adult. it felt as if I was sneaking company over and had to tell them, "shhh dont be too loud or my grandparents will be upset!". The age difference makes for natural communication barriers. For instance, there was and incident were I was vaping, ( not smoking weed) outside, and the guest thought I was smoking a cigarette or weed probably and decided to say something. So I had to show them my vape and understandably they didn't know what it was. It wasn't a big deal, but being an adult it makes you uneasy and tread lightly.
Lastly , to leave on a good note, the property is beautiful, views are beautiful, and the area is quiet and clean. If you are looking for shared place this is a no brainer. In general it would be a 5 star, but in specific the listing needs to be altered and it would be perfect.
