Poor Communication
I might still have chosen this place if it had been advertised correctly. The price is very good.
The initial photo is deceptive. The streetcar is over a ten minute walk away 0.6 miles. The neighborhood is nice to one side but the building itself looks like a dump on the outside (paint would help). The price is great and the place is pretty clean. One pot was icky and the bed kept getting dust and dirt from either the very dirty ceiling fan or the air conditioner. It was great to have an air conditioner in each room. They are loud but helped with the sticky heat.
My initial experience was awful and would have been solved through better communication. I couldn’t get in and it took nearly an hour before I could connect with the host. The code was wrong. Upon arrival there was no bedding for the futon and no coffee maker. It took time and very uncomfortable communication to correct this. The photos for this listing are not of this unit which feels disingenuous at the very least. This is especially easy to see when looking at the kitchen. The stove is smaller. The kitchen has several problems (light, oven and stove do not function well). The floors slope terribly. The futon is too uncomfortable to sleep on so there is only one bed.
Other than that, my son and I liked the unit.
