Thanks Jessica and Ethan!
This is a good place - it's a good value and I would stay at it again. There were 4 of us and we were able to stay comfortably.
It's just nice enough - it's a basement apartment that seems to have been upgraded somewhat recently.
Some things could be improved though:
- the host lets their dog out within the property from time to time. We found ourselves once being barked at when trying to get to the apartment until the host realized and made the dog go away.
- Some lights didn't work nor did the bathroom's fan.
- The bathroom had no hand soap.
- Upon our arrival we weren't able to lock the entrance door (it had a keypad lock). We contacted the host through the app's chat and came back to us very quickly but they should have offered to get to the apartment and help us (they live upstairs). It wasn't until we asked them to come help us that they did (they didn't offer), and at that point it was completely clear that we weren't doing anything wrong with the lock but instead something was off about it (it turned out the batteries were dead).
- Note that this is a basement, so some noise is to be expected. However the hosts seems to be early risers and they would wake up at ~6am with little intention to not be heard.
- The spiderwebs on the outside of the apartment could have been removed. This could be myself nit-picking but as a low-effort thing I think it's not much to ask since it would also help with the overall perception of the apartment.
