I think I made a big mistake by booking the cozy mud hut with big bridge view as my first airbnb experience. My teenage daugher & I were to spend the night in Portland and then drive down to Eugene to Duck day at UofO. This just was not anything like we expected or could accept! When we arrived Ivy was very pleasant & nice & showed us the property. Rustic means no electricy in the mud hut, bathroom in another building with stairs, so if you need to go in the middle of the night you go outside to another building down some stairs.. no flashlight offered. hot tub offered was not clean on the outside, no thank you. perhaps this property should be recommended for couples. I personally was more than disappointed that this was what was offered. My teenage daughter was ready to sleep in our rental car if this was what the evening plan was. So, I just have to be honest here, we left, we returned the key. We were appalled that airbnb offered this property. Not our cup of tea, but by the reviews there are those that are comfortable with this offering. I was concerned with health standards here.. the place was very unkept and dirty to me.. I would not recommend it at all. I am sorry but that is my honest review.. for those that can enjoy this kind of atmostphere, great. But I must say that I have traveled to many places in the world and this by far is one of the worst examples of living spaces I have seen.. Please note that I asked for a refund and Ivy did give me a refund and I am happy for that.. My daughter and I were able to find a nice hotel in Portland that was clean, safe, and nice.
Our stays in two different airbnb's in Eugene were great!
