Bedroom was a front porch. Shared bthroom was located through a locked door and down in the basement. Room smelled like it had been fumigated when I first arrived.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Stay away at all costs. Me and my friend have stayed in this accommodation for 2 nights and each night I have woken up with bed bug bites on my neck and head. Until the owner decides to throughly clean the bathroom, rooms and beds in general I would highly avoid staying here. There is little to no privacy since one of the rooms is half separated by a flimsy wall and therefore any movement is easily heard That being said the price is fair and no safety concerns at all. This is really a last resort cheap place to stay!

STAY AWAY FROM THIS PROPERTY! . I arrived at night because flight delate , I notified owner few hours prior about it . Rude Man met me at the door and start bargaining on a "late charge " $100 witch amount is not indicated and can be as much as he wants and on a payment for a keys ( I did not have deposit $20 in cash ) and he wants to add $ 25 to the price of stay. After I was agreed to pay late charge but promise to get cash for a key in the morning he kicked me with my child outside on a street at 3 am ! Telling that Expedia will not support me with complaints or refunds and frightening me that I will stay on a street calling Expedia and eventually he will charge me as much as he wants or cancel my reservation because I arrived late . I end up CALLING POLICE and Expedia . Expedia is not care about clients , if you arrived late then host can cancel you reservation or charge late fee as much as he wants . Police told me that they dealing REGULARLY with calls regarding bad behaviour of this host from visitors .SO STAY AWAY FROM THIS HOUSE . I received my money back after police talk to host .

Lack of parking

There was lack of parking on this property! Was unable too park in front of the house due to the fact of a bunch of rowdy teens outside the spot and had to park elsewhere which cost me getting my car towed due to lack of parking… I don’t think that’s right .. If you are hosting a hotel service make sure that there are parking for people too avoid issues like this
