The good: The hosts were very quick to respond and provided very detailed information about where to park and how to check-in/access the apartment.
The bad: Unfortunately, the building was in disrepair with less than friendly looking people coming, going, and loitering in the area. While this property is near a college campus, it is NOT inhabited by the college crowd. After I parked and entered the hallway, I was immediately smacked in the face by an overwhelming smell of cigarette smoke and mildew. I walked down the dark hallway and entered my unit only to be met with the same overwhelming smell. The space was decorated nicely but was also in disrepair - the blinds were all broken, the paint was peeling, there were holes in the walls, and the bathroom was unclean.
I messaged the host immediately and he offered to move me to a different location. Once I arrived at the second location, I was again greeted by an unsightly neighborhood with graffiti, litter, and a plywood-boarded building. No thanks.
After communicating back and forth and driving around for an hour, I ended up paying more to stay in a hotel.
I HIGHLY recommend staying away from this property, or any property owned by this host. While very polite and easy to communicate with, the locations are not as described.
