Review Score:   4
Summary: Our experience was disappointing. The unit needed better cleaning, and the broken shared washer/dryer caused a mosquito issue. There was also a concerning safety incident in the neighborhood during our stay. Communication with the host was slow, and we haven’t received a response regarding our early departure and refund request.
