The property was clean with parking right in front, located in a quiet residential area. However, the room was furnished very sparsely and there was no window.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The owner was friendly, the bed was clean, and there was secure access to both the house and our individual room. Unfortunately, these are the only positives of our stay. The cleanliness of the bathrooms was unacceptable. The sinks were covered in grime and loose hairs, the showers looked like they hadnt been cleaned in weeks, and generally had an unpleasant urine smell. The kitchen only allowed use of the microwave, which felt misleading because of the picture of the entire kitchen provided in the photo gallery of the property. The dishes available for public use were not very clean and the scrub for the dishes looked like it had been growing bacteria for months. The house had an overall unpleasant odor of feet and mold as well. It's a shame leaving this review because the owner seems friendly. I unfortunately would not recommend this stay.

As another reviews mentions, the place is infested with bed bugs. If you dont know how bad this is, google it. You will need to be quarantined and fumigate anywhere you come into contact with furniture after. AVOID AT ALL COSTS. Place smells bad, and toilets are dirty.

Maggie Qinqin

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The wall-mounted panels, which appeared to be intended for noise cancellation, were purely decorative and provided no noticeable sound reduction. Noise from the upper level was clearly audible throughout the stay, even at midnight. Additionally, parking was limited, and the situation was further impacted by the fact that the owner sleeps on the property, occupying one of the already scarce parking spots, which further reduced availability for guests.

I left after one night; I had never seen an accommodation this dirty! In the room the floor was not clean, and there was a lot of dust. But the bathroom is what made me leave. The sink looked like it had not been cleaned in weeks; same thing for the toilet, plus it wasn’t flushed when I got there, and the shower was covered in mold!! I was the only one staying in the basement, so the dirt wasn’t done by another traveler. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone!!
