Let me start with: it was a nice enough, basic place to stay. As far as what the host has control over, the fire alarm was beeping. Now, there are a couple of things I wish we had known before going that would've changed my mind. Not being from somewhere where row houses are a thing, we were a little caught off guard by how narrow and steep the hallway and stairwell were to reach the living levels. Luckily, our friend who is 6'3", 400 lbs. wasn't able to make it last minute because I have a feeling he would've struggled to get into the home. Not the host's fault, but just something to note if booking. There also wasn't drinking water, only tap, so plan accordingly for that. Lastly, again, this is something the host can't change, and we understand it's just part of being in the city of Baltimore. However, there is a homeless woman camped across the street. Our second night there, she chose to use the Vrbo's stoop as her shelter from the possible rain. We got back late, and she was completely blocking the front door. She also left all her trash: 7 boxes of honey buns, some gift bags, and glasses by the door. Again, nothing the host could control, but a risk of booking in the neighborhood, had I been traveling with, say, my elderly parents or girlfriends, instead of my boyfriend, would have made me really uncomfy. Will 100% be choosing to stay in a hotel instead the next time we find ourselves in Baltimore.
