Summary: Eduardo was a kind and responsive host. He was flexible with our check-in date, had the place cleaned before our arrival, and communicated well. However, we didn’t even stay the night. We arrived around 5 PM and left by 9 PM due to serious safety and comfort concerns.The biggest issue was the neighborhood, which was not disclosed in the listing. There’s a liquor store directly across the street, and while walking back from our parking spot (which was three blocks away), two individuals screamed and cursed at my 8-year-old son. That incident made us feel extremely unsafe.Parking was another challenge. The designated space behind the home was too small for our SUV, and nearby street parking was scarce.Security also felt lacking. The back door lock didn’t work properly, and the front door had only a keypad deadbolt, no knob or secondary lock. The door itself appeared to have been damaged previously, adding to the sense of vulnerability.The listing had no exterior photos, which would have helped set better expectations for the surrounding area. While the third-floor bedrooms had portable AC units, the rest of the upstairs remained hot and uncomfortable.To Eduardo’s credit, he said he’s addressing some of these issues, and I believe he cares. But based on our experience, this property is not suitable for families with young kids or anyone concerned about security and neighborhood safety.
