Needs swept but nice
The place needs some work and cleaning(swept)but overall alright. The bed was comfortable and clean. The kitchen, "commons area" and bathroom were alright but again need swept. The location is awesome. The view and trail into the forest is wonderful. The front stairs are a workout, as well as the driveway/parking hill in back. I saw no towels but didnt ask for any.

It was about what we expected for $40 a night. House overall was just dirty- a bit dusty/grimy, the biggest issue was the flies everywhere because of the open indoor compost. Bathroom also left much to be desired. However for the price, the bedroom was decent, and the kitchen had some basics and was had enough dishes that we could make dinner. Property owner was very on top of paperwork.

It is a scam. It is not a motel, but a dirty house with hippies. There were two small "bedrooms" and everyone shared the living room, kitchen and bath. The owner was high, disrespectful and wouldn't give us our cash back when we decided not to stay. He also charged my credit card. I felt unsafe and just left. It was filthy and the bed sheets weren't changed. I called the Nelsonville police, but no one returned my call.

I desperately needed a place to stay for the night. So this worked for that reason only. I would not choose this under any circumstances. The inside is filthy, the outside hasnt been taken care of and there is a smell inside. Sadly, with the right owners, it clearly has potential that a coat of paint, bleach and nice bedding (all affordable) and a team to clean up the outside would make this a nice place to stay.
