Host was responsive. The place was not as clean as one would expect when we arrived. There was a pest trap downstairs that had not been collected and still had a mouse attached. The downstairs also had a bit of an unpleasant odor. The space everywhere else was great.Trash cans in the bear bin where very full and we had to squeeze in our trash at the end of our stay.
