“In my opinion, prospective guests might encounter unexpected situations upon arrival, like finding the exterior under renovation with no available accommodations. I also noted some concerns about cleanliness and undisclosed pet fees. The lack of direct access to the front desk could also signal a restrictive customer service approach, in my opinion.”
