Liked: Check-in
Disliked: Location, listing accuracy
Host was responsive but used select words and didn’t share full details. Place was newly renovated but the outside yard had a lot of broken glass, scissors and sharp objects all over, could not hang out in yard due to lack of landscaped area. Home did not have any living room space as asked. There were no couches - the only gathering space aside from 12 bedrooms was the kitchen. It was very strange and creepy. 2 roaches were found during stay and we left a day early, host said would credit stay but never received any credit. Air is on a locked system and it took a while to get code to adjust temp. There was no hot water, just like warm.
