The location of this property is really ideal for someone who wants to explore CDA. Close to some really great food, dessert, and shopping. It was pretty hot when I stayed but the owner was very helpful with installing AC as best he could. Great host to work with and very personable. Would definitely stay again.

While the host did mention in a personal communication that other people might be staying at this location later in the week, the listing did not actually state that this is a shared housing with other people in other rooms or that the host lived there. Therefore this was disorienting. Upon entering I saw that the window screen in the entry way was ripped and blowing in the breeze. The kitchen floor had dirt in various places. There was clutter in the kitchen, living room and eating table. It was a noisy street with cars driving by quite a lot and they could be heard within the house. The host texted me telling me that someone was coming to clean the house while I was going to be there. The loft I was set to stay in was incredibly hot. There were no instructions for how to cool it down. The landscaping was unkept. When the host arrived, we discussed a refund and while I thought we had come to some understanding of that agreement, the email I received regarding the amount of the refund was significantly less than what we had discussed. My suggestion is to be clear and congruent with the listing description and photos with those who are staying there.

Older home. Clean.
