Pros: the location was perfect for our stay, which is also mentioned in most reviews here. Also, the responsiveness of the host, ease of communication, and checking in was great. Parking was no problem either even with a broken sign on the post. The instructions provided were very clear. Luckily, despite the location being in a busy area (lots of foot traffic and Gen-Z’ers in the vicinity), it was quiet for sleep. The space is larger than expected and its potential can be appreciated. Hot water got very hot.
Cons: as some mentioned, the outlets didn’t all work. The space is inviting, however, I wasn’t comfortable with the state of repair. I feel some investment could be made for the bathtub and shower first and foremost (there is a reason it’s not pictured). That is one of the most important spaces to me when traveling, second to the kitchen. There were many ceiling tiles in the kitchen nearly falling out/very droopy. I felt unsettled because of this. The rug in the bathroom should be tossed (some brown thing stuck to it- not sure what?) and the linens/bath towels had hairs and stains that didn’t originate with us. The blinds on the front door were so broken it was off putting as the first thing you see when approaching the door.
I rated 3 stars because OK is better than 2 stars which is considered “bad.” I feel it’s an okay space, but I didn’t feel comfortable because the cons were unsettling- I was eager for a shower in my own home and to sleep on my own linens. A lot of potential as it’s large, an historic Victorian, and a great location. The team/host are perhaps doing their best for this price point, though. Maybe best suited for 20-somethings who don’t care as much as someone who’s a bit more particular like me!
