Very clean and easy communication with owners. However, putting two queen beds in one room where you have to walk sideways to navigate is silly. Plus there was no night stand or lamp. The door didn’t open fully because of the bed situation. Plus charging $22 for sheets? There was no mention to bring your own! It was certainly good enough and very clean for a night but I would make those changes for better quality.
