Pros: Good location, fun pool, responsive host.
Cons: The AC was broken when I arrived late in the evening. I thought maybe I just didn’t realize that the unit didn’t have AC. But it was 81 degrees around 11:30 PM. Slept with the fan option on and a large fan that was already available in the room. That got the temperature down to 76 degrees, but it still made for a really rough sleep. By the time morning rolled around it was getting increasingly warm. I checked to see if I could open the window for some air, but there was no screen on the outside. It was so hot, I ended up skipping taking a shower and just getting out of the room for my planned daytime activities. It seemed odd that AC wouldn’t be included, so I decided to reach out to the host. He was quick to respond and he came to see if he could fix it. He couldn’t, so he offered me the option of staying in that room and setting the fan up in the window or switching rooms.
I took the host up on the offer to switch rooms. Upon arrival, this room was indeed cooler with a nice king sized bed.
Other cons: the key didn’t work to unlock the pool, the toilet water was running non-stop upon arrival in the new room, the ice machine wasn’t working, it looked like someone had taken out the tv and left the cable hanging out, and there were no usb charging ports in the room.
Overall, I appreciated the host. But I wouldn’t ever stay here again. It’s also a room that doesn’t seem to be managed by the hotel itself. It was odd.
