Stayed 5 nights in Jan 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Christina H. Aug 23, 2024 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Does the Job We stayed in Bayonne for three days. The pictures online are not quite accurate to the space. It is a very small kitchen area and then 3 bedrooms attached. They did say there is no living room but it was overall a bit shaker than expected for a large group. It did the job though and we were grateful for the space. We appreciated the air conditioning units in each room and and that there were many of great restaurants nearby. Not the nicest area but it was ok. There is no smoking allowed but the upstairs neighbors were smoking weed when we arrived and into the next morning. It smelled horrible and there was no way other than the ac units to circulate air. They did respond quickly to try and fix the problem but the smell lingered throughout our stay. Overall, great hosts but the doorways and hallways were small, bedrooms were decent size though and cute in their decor. ##### Christina H.
