One of our worst vacation experiences

There was major yard work that included chopping down trees, jack hammering out cement, and grinding out tree stumps. All of this occurred directly outside our window. The work lasted 6 days and went from between 7 & 8 am until 5 or 6pm. My husband was working and had to deal with all the noise. He had to adjust his work schedule to accomplish his job. This work was not disclosed to us at any point. The work just started one day without warning. Also, the back part of the yard where our dog was supposed to play/do his business was covered in chopped down trees for 10+ days. The laundry facilities, which were presented in the original pictures as part of our unit, was shared laundry in the main house. This was not disclosed in the listing but has since been changed to say “shared”. In addition, the laundry facilities were unavailable at the start of our stay, and I ended up at the local laundry mat. Thus, we incurred the cost to clean our clothes, sheets, and towels. Not to mention the inconvenience of spending a couple hours at a laundry mat while on vacation. The original VBRO pictures showed a full-size refrigerator that was also presented as part of our unit. The picture is now removed from the owner’s pictures. We had a small dormitory refrigerator inside our unit. We ended up buying our own pans for cooking, as the pans provided were old and unusable. We tried them for two days and gave up. The unit had many spiders, roaches, and ants. There was ant spray under the sink which we used several times. There are two other rooms being rented at the main house. One off the garden and one off the shared laundry facilities. Three different renters stayed in the room off the laundry area in the 3.5 weeks we were there. We were not aware there would be other renters at the property. We had no issues with any of the 3 renters off the laundry area. However, we had several encounters with the renter of the garden room. She was verbally abusive to us on several occasions all unprovoked, while we used the common area to sit or grill our dinner. She came out and screamed at us, as she wanted us to stay on the patio by our unit which we a most of the time. She never spoke to us in a normal tone of voice. She just yelled. For anyone renting in the future, please be aware the owner has plans on building an additional building in the back part of the property. The construction will affect your stay.

Great location

Check in was easy, beautiful home in a great location. Comfy bed and nice shower, though the tap doesn’t turn off all the way and you’ll hear it dripping. He let us use their bikes too! Very limited kitchen utensils. Found ants on the kitchen counter the second day, told the host, and he didn’t respond, but put a can of Raid outside for us. You’ll probably have ants if you stay here, but if you’re okay with a quick bug spray fix, you’ll be okay. Would be nice if the host would fix that issue. Overall, nice stay and only about a 5 min bike ride to the beach.

We hope to return next winter

George was great to work with. We arrived & he met us to go over security codes, show us where we could store our bicycles, inquire as to if we had any other needs. I’m picky & asked for more pillows & he was so kind, patient & immediately got what I asked for. We also enjoy slow cooked meals and George came back in a minute with a large crockpot. The bathroom is great plenty of room & an abundance of hot water for our showers❗️We enjoyed a nice private outdoor garden area. Grilled at least weekly on our own gas grill. We bicycled around Coronado 4-5 days a week & it was easy-peasy to open the garden gate & begin our rides. Our bikes were always locked securely in the garage. George is a wonderful host. We enjoyed our stay in his efficiency studio apartment.

Would not stay again. Very Dirty.

I was hoping the other reviews for this listing were just flukes. They were not. My review is going to be so bad you might be tempted to think it’s an exaggeration...IT ISNT. We had to buy new towels, pillows and used our own sheets. We had to clean the entire studio upon arriving. Trust the bad reviews here people, or you will regret it as we did. I’m sure we could have talked to the host about our issues, but as we were staying a month and had to see him in passing we wanted to avoid an uncomfortable situation. That’s definitely our bad, but based on the other reviews and the hosts response I didn’t see any point. Shame really, could be a nice place. Pros: Host seemed nice enough. Charming house, in a great location. Cons: The studio was disgusting when we arrived. So much dog hair on the floor/furniture it was actually unbelievable. The shower (and we assumed the rest of the bathroom) had clearly not been cleaned. COCKROACH in the kitchen cabinets/dirty countertops. Cobwebs. Pillows that stunk so bad we couldn’t use them. Blood stain on sheets. Dingy bath towels. Broken window (still...another guest already brought this up) Broken/improperly functioning “sleep number” bed was the most uncomfortable bed I’ve ever slept in. No privacy curtains so you are basically on display, especially when you’re in bed. I’m sure there is more, but you get the picture.

Poorly maintained, gets hot

Owner was not maintaining this unit, broken furniture throughout, broken kitchen utensils, disposal wasn't connected, broken windows, no paper towells, no tissues, no propane tank on the gas grill, no private parking, contrary to what the listing said - I had to park on the street. Lack of privacy, the owner rents out rooms in the main house to other guests who trudge back and forth to the garage to get their bikes all day, going right through your supposedly private patio. Sheer curtains on those windows facing the garage, so they can look right in. No screen door, no air conditioning, so expect lots of flies when you open the door for ventilation and it gets hot. Owner George is nice enough and recognized he had work to do, so after a long talk, he agreed to refund my deposit for the next month and I vacated so he could get to work. Hopefully, he will take care of these issues, the place has potential and it is in a good location.

Unclean. Very old cobwebs behind & under everything. Dust, dog fur & nasty odor in the bathroom.

Just received the insurance claim the owners sent to VRBO. The amount of over $1,500. Of course, the mandatory insurance coverage that was required will cover the cost. I am a positive person and meet everyone with an open mind. My parents raised me not to say anything unkind and live and let live. However, the owners listed items that functioned the same upon arrival. Such as, replacing an entire door that was sticking on the top, which are little sanding would fix. The current guest next door, which will be staying there for sometime, began complaining to the owners about that noise and many other problems our last week. She apparently told the owners that she was going to call the police. Mind you, our 20 month was dealing with a 15 hour jetlag difference. My wife and I felt harassed from this other guest and everything increasingly got worse. The before mentioned guest is having a house built across the street from this location and plans on becoming a permanent member of the wonderful community of Coronado. So, I understand the owners predicament. The owners did not allow us to do all of our laundry. Which, was an issue for us because they only provide one set of sheets for your stay. We purchased other sheets and a mattress protector. However, part of their insurance claim is to replace the never used mattress protector and very little used sheets. Needless to say, we vacated earlier than planned There were two other guests that were pleasant enough, however with two dogs in the backyard, there is always something to step in. George's son is in his twenties and has issues with touching/ moving his clothes from washer and dryer. I cleaned up after our son and really improved their neglected garden area, but was never thanked. In fact, George took a hose to clean leaves, although there is and has been a serious drought in California, and damaged our son's new $300 battery operated car. I understand that no one is perfect. We will continue to use VRBO and not let this experience tarnish us. Hopefully, thesefactual statements will help everyone with compassion. Understanding others first, before trying to be understood. Safe travels everyone. Peace and much love.
