Sunset Cottage: Charming 2-bdrm house w/ king bed in WinstonSalem; great locatio

Host was a great communicator. We had to shorten our tip and he was great at making this adjustment quickly. Home was close to downtown so we could get to great restaurants within minutes.

Cute little house. Not the best neighborhood. Felt the listing was deceptive because the driveway w/garage was pictured but before arrival host requested we park on the street because it is a shared driveway. Our car and it’s contents were ultimately fine but we weren’t really comfortable parking on the street and felt uneasy about it the whole time.While previous reviews had praised the cleanliness of the property, it was sufficiently clean but we noticed some things that should be addressed. All of our allergies went into overdrive in this house. Mold on the bathroom ceiling. Dust bunnies on the floor behind the bed in the primary. Cobwebs with dead spiders and insects on the fireplace in the living room.The primary would benefit from some blackout curtains like the 2nd bedroom has. At night, the streetlight shines straight through the primary bedroom privacy shades and lands right on the pillow in the middle of the bed. And the house next door has a motion detector light that goes on and off throughout the night that also shines straight into the bedroom. Very disruptive and not conducted to a good nights sleep.The inside front door knob is on the verge of falling off. Made it tricky to open the door from inside. And all the water fixtures need tightening as well (tub/shower, bathroom sink and kitchen sink).Other than those things, everything else was fine. Host communicated adequately and we had no problems checking in or out of the property.

We liked staying at this property due to the close proximity to our family that lived in the area. It was comfortable and the kitchen was easy to cook in.

Clean. Comfortable.
