Could not stay, as no parking as advertized, can't seem to get my money for 9 nights back.
Pros:

nothing, the guy is a crook

Cons:

I paid for 9 days, did not stay there and am still trying to get reimbursed for 8 nights. The host is refusing to return my payment. When I got there, even though they advertised free parking, they did not have parking, none at all, neither free or any at all, streets are so narrow that you could not park anywhere near the property unless you wanted to pay for parking on a lot some distance away I could not stay there as I did not know where to put my car.
The lobby is dirty and looks neglected, host speaks no foreign language. I think he is living on payments that people make that he does not return when they want to cancel in disgust.
