Positives: -AMAZING location; totally walkable to downtown and felt like a very safe and accessible spot -The host provided shampoo, conditioner, bodywash, coffee, sugar, kitchen stuff, ect. I did appreciate that.  -The place is cute; they have done alot to make this basement space welcoming and cute. I appreciate the effort on the theme. -I appreciated the easy direction and covered entrance to the basement; it was fully lit with an automatic light which was helpful for when I arrived at night -the washer and dryer is a great amenity!!  Noise - you will fully hear everything happening in the house above you. To their credit it's written in the listing, but it was louder and more disruptive than anticipated. Could hear full conversations, what they were watching on tv, ect.   Parking - the spot reserved for this listing is TINY. I struggled the entire time parking there. You have to squeeze in between a rock wall and a carport. I had a mid-size suv - there is no way you could park a larger car there. I could not pull the GMC Terrain rental I had all the way in because it was so tight   Heater - when I arrived the night of the stay, the heater was not working. It was late and no one answered the messaged in the VRBO inbox. I ended up having to call 2 of the phone numbers listed, where someone brought out a space heater at 10:30 pm. I do appreciate them doing that, but it was extremely disruptive to my trip - I wanted to get there and go to bed but instead was waiting up for
