It was in a glorified shed behind the house. There was no electrical outlet in the bathroom. The host was unresponsive. I left early it was so bad. ##### Eleanor K. Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Melissa H. 5 Jan 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, location Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy #### Unacceptable Accommodations Rented the small MIL unit attached at the back of the main house during a temp work assignment. Upon checking in, the door code did not work. CS did a great job of answering and getting me in after hours. However, I had to call several more times during my 3 week stay to have the code reset. There was not adequate heat in the unit, the breaker kept tripping, I had to enter the main house one night, find the basement, and flip the breaker to get power back. Electrical outlet in the bedroom got so hot I couldn't leave my phone charger plugged in that receptable. There are no smoke detectors which is mandated by the municipality for rental properties. Couch is filthy and smells like human urine. Bedding had fresh blood stains, and the amount of mold in the unit is absolutely unacceptable. Neighborhood is safe and quiet, but parking is not as represented. There are two available spots at the curb that have to be carefully negotiated with the neighbors. Unfortunately, I am not able to upload photos of the mold condition to protect prospective renters. ##### Melissa H. Stayed 19 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Paul M. 23 Apr 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cozy spot Great quiet spot for a short stay in Shandon. Just like in the description. Although it's obvious once you know, a photo of the actual door to enter would have been helpful for checking in. ##### Paul M.
