We just spent a couple nights in the patio suite. Scott's house is beautiful and well kept and in a great location, convenient to lots of restaurants and bars.
Unfortunately a few things didn't go as planned. The patio that was meant to be our private space was under construction, thankfully Scott allowed us to use his own large patio in the back of the house with a nice fire pit which was really appreciated. Unfortunately that also meant that workmen were loudly doing construction during much of the day into the early evening. We also had some maintenance issues on site - an ant attack happened when we left some donuts in a sealed box on the counter over night - everything else was in the fridge, but if you stay here I recommend not leaving any food out. The door lock also died due to a low battery and we were unable to get in for a moment. Scott was very responsive on our issues though, spraying for ants and very quickly getting the battery replaced on the lock within a matter of minutes. We appreciated his quick attentiveness to these items.
Another thing to note is that the hot water in the shower really didn't last long enough for us to both shower. I'm not sure if it was on a timer or something due to the "eco" nature of the house, but we weren't trying to take long showers at all so that was a bummer. Also, please note there's no kitchen sink, which makes it a bit awkard having to do your dishes in the bathroom, but we made that work. There is also no stove or oven in the unit, but those are listed here as on-site amenities.
The most important thing here is, if you're going to book here, you really need to be prepared to read a long thorough list of rules and stick to them 100%. My wife and I are really clean guests and thought this wouldn't be a problem for us. But we were trying hard to follow the rules - we let Scott know in advance some friends might come by, etc. But despite trying to follow the rules, we still made mistakes. In attempting to tidy up the unit, I put what I thought were recyclables and what I thought was compost into the corresponding bins outside, but apparently I messed up how I sorted them. Scott texted me, after 10PM, to let me know I made a mistake and said we contaminated his recycling. We kind of felt like that was uncalled for, especially that late at night. It put a bit of a damper on the end of our trip. It would be good if the waste disposal rules were even more prominently displayed in the unit if they are that much of an issue to the host. We kind of felt like we weren't allowed to have trash at all and ended up taking almost all our trash with us when we left rather than disposing of it on site.
And lastly, we really weren't a big fan of the bed - the mattress was pretty thin on just on a wood base with no box spring - so we slept pretty poorly, and didn’t feel very well rested.
Anyway, it's a very nice property and Scott is a nice guy, but you may feel a little on edge about some of the many rules if you stay here, which makes it a bit hard to fully relax.
