Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
The unit is in a good location, close to hospital, restaurants, neighborhood is quite and parking on the property made it nice. It was clean when we arrived, no issue to get into the house. It had new towels and linens. Communication to the host was just fine, they responded to our questions within few minutes. Overall we had a nice 4day stay.

The check in process was nice and easy: A couple issues the shower didn’t get warm and the place was a little dirty. Needed a better deep cleaning.

2/10 Terrible

Liked: Check-in
Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, listing accuracy
Unfortunately, we had a miserable stay. The dead car in the driveway & overgrown landscaping should have been a warning. Upon arrival we were disappointed to find out that the “entire home” as listed in the site was actually just a first floor apartment, with VERY loud upstairs neighbors! The interior was not clean. Kitchen counters full of crumbs, the fridge had spills & crumbs all over the interior, the showers were absolutely filthy & the bed linens were stained. The home advertised towels, which were not included. I contacted the owner, who directed me to a few hand towels that were tossed in the closet next to some old pillows (yeah…no!). They made no effort to rectify the issues, offered excuses & claimed the home had been cleaned twice the day before. We ended up having to go buy bed linens, towels & cleaning supplies, which I requested be refunded as linens were to be part of the stay, & I never received payment. It felt very much like someone was living there and they hurried out prior to our stay between the filth and toys all over. We only stayed as there were no accommodations available locally. I always try to find a positive…so…the owner was quick to reply (even if the replies weren’t helpful) and communication prior to our arrival was timely. We purchased the insurance and Vrbo reached out to the owner, who hasn’t responded. Hoping the homeowner or Vrbo make this right & the owner updates the listing. The owner should also provide a closing list.
