Pros:Clean roomHost very responsiveRoom very quaint and cute. Bathroom beautifulCons:Bathroom towels smelled a bit like mildewNo actual blinds/curtain on window… light kept coming in outside the window throughout the night waking us up. Blackout curtains would solve this issue.

Not very nice

Checkin is confusing- There’s multiple units and clear instructions are missing. Parking isn’t true- it’s street parking as available. Unit is non smoking and smelled like smoke. Shower doesn’t work properly (complicated shower head only works waist down). Audible camera announcements can be heard from inside all night long. Safety lights turn on all night. Not a kitchen as advertised. Numerous homeless camps within 1-3 blocks. Soap to wash hash in bathroom. Very basic and not as advertised, would not return.
