By far, this is the most comfortable and cleanest airbnb that we've ever stayed. Merril was so accommodating and exceeded our expectation. She had also provided us with breakfast, which we truly appreciate.

4.0 / 10.0

Great location, lack of privacy and cleaning from owner.

Good location, nice having milk etc left in the fridge.

1. Arrived for a wedding and elderly parents were looking after children and not staying. however host living next door came to talk to us twice, once when I was in shower and told my elderly parents they needed to pay extra $50 night to stay (we’re not staying) and asked us to check out earlier than the booking stayed. Really intrusive! People want privacy when they stay! 2. Sheets need to be hot washed! Sheets didn’t feel or smell very clean. Need a sanitizing hot wash. Would be great having cotton duvet covers, rather than sweaty polyester. 3. Mould in the shower around edges. 4. Found a dirty ear plug under the bed. 5. Long hair found around the juice bottle in the fridge. Just needed better attention to detail for cleaning.

It wasn't clear to us that the twin beds were not in one room. So as the second couple we had the choice of splitting up, one sleeping in the communal lounge, or sharing a single bed.
