My partner and I stayed for 154 nights/5 months September - February. We both worked remotely, and I recovered from surgery, so we have a unique experience of what it is like to live here.
Pros: Friendly hosts with fast response time, lots of natural light in the main area and room darkening shades in the bedrooms, easy self check-in, great TV set up, desk and office chair in 2nd bedroom, plenty of cooking pans and utensils, close to the airport and downtown, and a meditation center within walking distance
Cons: The house was in need of a deep clean when we moved in, and we weren’t equipped with cleaning supplies to clean it ourselves. There was a lack of attention to detail for things like squeaky bed frames, a cracked bowl, overflowing stinky vacuum bag, missing blender lid, unclean laundry area, not having more than 4 regular plates for a long stay, overgrown bushes that scratched our cars, etc. The street noise is LOUD at all hours of the day (cars, businesses behind the backyard fence, airport, military base, trains), and we heard gun shots weekly. There was no communication method given for the downstairs tenant, which greatly affected our use of the shared laundry and backyard space, and it is obvious the tenant does not want guests there (slamming of doors, hosting parties, using the laundry 4+ times a week). Despite us requesting them not to, the hosts periodically did disruptive house projects during our stay.
Overall, this Airbnb got the job done, and we tried to not be overly nit-picky. This might be a good night or weekend stay for adults, but we personally would not stay here again due to being noise sensitive and not enjoying sharing the spaces with the downstairs tenant.
