Spot unavailable and the owner refuses to make a refund
Cons:

Owner very unavailable, no parking spot available, room dirty and very noisy, bathroom dirty and the door of the unit doesn't even lock anymore.
I couldn't stay at the location because there was no parking spot available and parking is not allowed in the street during winter so I asked for a refund that I didn't get

Poor service
Pros:

Prior to booking this unit it did not show it was a shared accommodation. After booking I was told it was shared. I tried to cancel immediately and the host refused to give me my money.

Cons:

It said it was 77.00$ total but in small hidden fee it says 84$ and 50$ extra. I paid 161.00 dollars and I never even stayed at the unit.

Horrible. Pire de toute ma vie
Pros:

Rien

Cons:

Telement horrible le service.
L’équipement
Comment est possible qu’une personne donne aussi peu d’amour à sa propriété.
Les sommiers du lit sont brisé. On tombe dans son sommeil. Matela de très mauvaise qualité
Pas de rangement vêtement
On partage un appartement avec des étranger. Les toilettes les salles de vies sans aviser les clients.
Aucune disposition pour assurer le stationnement du client.

Good property but we had a scary night, unfortunately
Pros:

it was easy to locate the place and nearby good eateries

Cons:

we had terrible experience with the host and compromised our safety , just in the midnight two men have opened the door and unloaded all their stuffs while we are fast asleep , wakes me up and asking to vacate.

we were stunned to hear and after checking with the host they have given our address and passkey to them instead of some other property managed by them, which is totally unacceptable. the host was just justifying their action despite how scared we were about the situation

I couldn't stay not for a little bit there.
Pros:

nothing

Cons:

I had to leave right away. They didn't clean the sheets, there are insects & spider webs everywhere and they confirmed my booking refused to refund me and ignored all my texts and calls.
They have mold and hair in the bathroom, & they are liers about SUIT because they are rooms in a shared apartment and one shared bathroom.
