10/10 Exceptional

It was my first time staying at the property. The shared bathroom and shared kitchen was concern at first, but I got used to after the first night. On the first night, there was another guest sleeping on the couch in the shared living room. That MF snored like a loud dying pig. The walls are not that thick and I could hear him from my room. But, liked that the room opened to the balcony. The room, Room 2, where I stayed was close to a highway so the traffic noise was bearable, but the traffic died down in the evening. The balcony also has two plastic Adirondack chairs where I sat every morning watching the sunrise, if you could look beyond the power cables that sometimes interfered with the view. The property was within 20 min of where I needed to go. There’s a McDonald’s with an all-day/all-night drive through; would get my coffee and breakfast and sit on the balcony waiting for the sunrise. It would be nice to have a Keurig that is connected to the plumbing so no need to refill. There’s also a full size fridge/freezer where you can store your leftovers.

My main concern was the ubiquitous presence of cameras in the common areas of the house. We were warned about that peculiarity when we checked in. Nonetheless, it felt very uncomfortable to be walking around knowing you were recorded on a continuous basis. Otherwise, the property was pleasant, in very good shape and clean. Support was available, if and when needed.

This is not a hotel stay
This is not a hotel and was presented as one. The price was the same as other local hotels with more amenities and fewer check out rules or a shared bathroom. Overall average clean stay.

There was signs that say will be charge if things out of place curtains ripped when you close them no privacy !!! Restroom paper folded every three sheets like your only allowed three squares at any given time there was vacuum running till 11pm and baths running at 2am and 4am the closest has the drain pipes in it so it’s amplified every time !! No blanket anywhere spent the night cold uncovered..wife and I booked 2 days we came in at 7 pm and promptly left at 6am the next morning did not return!!!

Cámaras watching you for everything, if they want you to be inside with no shoes they should provide disposable sandals, the toilet is so dirty, the tube feels like you are going to end at the bottom. If the restrooms need to be share they should have Lysol or something to spray before the use . There was a roach in the room, they talked to my husband not to wear shoes inside the house in the cameras so I asked for an iron by camera since we never saw a cleaning lady and no response but you move left cámara move you right cámara move , that was my first and last time staying there.

The host should have given the check in instructions already since I fully paid and sent the verification form that I filled out prior to checking in. I have to text and call the host several times for the instructions since the host did not answer the phone until five minutes before the check in time. Instructions for the TV none. Password for the internet is not indicated. So frustrating.

4/10 Fair

Absolutely not worth $$! Overrated in my opinion!
At first, I thought everything looked good. I was willing to overlook the giant puddle in my parking spot, that soaked my sneakers while unpacking my car. Getting into the house was easy, until I got to my room. The door is too big for its frame. It kept scraping off the top of the frame and was very difficult to properly close and keep closed. The bed and pillows smelled like B.O., so I put a towel over them. I recommend that you use earplugs to help get a sound sleep. I understand this may be out of the property owner’s control, but there’s some kind of bird outside that is constantly making noise. I could still hear it even with all windows closed. But the ultimate problem that I had with this place, was the “two” cockroaches that I saw! One in the bedroom, and one in the bathroom. I understand that the climate may have something to do with a increase of the number of roaches in the region. But, there’s no excuse for this if you’re running a b&b. They’re almost impossible to get rid of and I had to pack back up and put my belongings in my car for the second and last day of the stay. I shook out everything and hopefully I won’t bring any critters back home with me. So to conclude, I would not stay here again. Especially for the rates that are being asked for here. I cannot give you any impression of the person that lives/owns the property because I did not see or have any interaction with them. Otherwise, I would of been able to address some of the issues w/o writing here.

Nice, spacious, clean room with private bath. Easy entry with good instructions. My only concern was the air freshener was very strong and caused some allergic reaction.

This is not a Hotel!!! It's a house that shares rooms like air B & B. I was so upset when I get there because I was booked a hotel room, not an air B&B. But my roommates are very lovely, they made my day. I Hope Expedia can assist the owner to correct the description of their house. This is cheating!!!

2/10 Poor

This was more of a sketchy youth hostile then a vacation rental. Our room smelled like mold, and the bathroom tile was falling off of what had to be the least safe soaking tub I've ever seen. The sink drawer smelled like something died inside it when you opened it. We had to keep the windows open and the fan on just to make the room tolerable. Crusty stains all over the furniture, carpets...it was pretty horrific. Parking was actually dangerous with the large rock right where you open your door into. Other guests seemed nice, but we tried to stay out of the room as much as possible. There were also these weird posters on the wall...cartoon people with objects...well, I'm not even sure I can describe it, but frankly, it was inappropriate for the general public. We ended up leaving early and booking accommodations elsewhere (no refund ofc).
