    Jinx and William are very fine people, it was great pleasure to meet! The communication from the very beginnig was perfect with Jinx and later I was warmly welcomed. I feel sorry we did not have more time to talk. The location is perfect, neat and lovely neighborhood. Hope to see you again! All the best, Balázs

    Nice bedroom. Good location. No central AC, which was only a problem during the heatwave. I left a day early due to roaches in the bathroom, which made me uncomfortable. I showed the bugs to Jinx and asked her to clean the bathroom. She deduced a $40 “cleaning fee” from a one day refund. A sour ending to an otherwise okay stay.

    Kerry was obviously not himself the last day of his stay he came to me very aggressively about leaving to stay at his cousins and could he have a refund( which is not my policy) after our 10 day agreement. This was Kerry’s first time homestay and kinda wanted hotel accommodations. (Air conditioning)At about 10:30 pm the night before he was to leave he dramatically told me about the bugs. I didn’t see any and sprayed and cleaned the bathroom in front of him. It was very disappointing that Kerry chose to behave like this at the end of what he told me was a great stay. He said he wanted to make me dinner and appeared happy. Mixed massages. However he is young and perhaps doesn’t realize this is a business and such comments should have been discussed before the last day. I asked him every single day and night how are you and he said great with a smile…..

    The home was untidy with food on the floor. The listing advertised breakfast and a private bathroom of which I received neither. There was cat food on the vanity in my unshared bathroom. My sheets were not clean on arrival but changed next day. I would not recommend this place.

    So sorry Darren felt this way. The sheets were changed and clean when he arrived. The bathroom was private and there were some unopened cat food cans in the bathroom. It is summer there may have been bugs. I offered Darren coffee and he declined and left. I feel sorry he felt this way. He never said a word to me about any problems that I could have fixed. The cleaning women comes every other day so I have no words about my house being so untidy, Bottom line you never know what a persons expectations are. Darren was a wonderful guest.

    Great location. Comfy bed. Housekeeping could use more attention.

    Der erste Eindruck war leider eher schlecht. Keine richtige Begrüssung, zuerst Geld und dann das Zimmer und die vielen Regeln im Haus. Es war ein Homestay in einem Privatzimmer. Ausser dem kleinen schmuddeligen Bad durften wir keinen einzigen Raum benutzen. Das light breakfast war nicht dabei und so gingen wir uns das Essen selber einkaufen. Essen mussten wir auch im Zimmer. Die Küche und das Wohnzimmer ein absolutes Tabu, obwohl die Hausherrin ein separater Hausteil hat. Nicht mehr als 5 Minuten duschen ist eine der Regeln. Da aber das Warmwasser erst nach 2 Minuten kam, war es nicht wirklich einfach dies einzuhalten. Das Bett war bequem und wir bekamen einen Schlüssel zum Haus. So waren wir wenigstens frei und konnten ein und aus wann immer wir wollten. Auf Nachfrage bei der Houstmum, wäschte sie sogar unsere schmutzigeb Klamotten, was uns sehr ûberraschte.
