Disliked: Cleanliness
Cleanliness and Major Security Concerns! Ultimately not worth the issues we dealt with.
I would NOT recommend this property, nor would I stay again in future.There were a few things we liked about this place:1) Quiet and accessible to many major areas of DSM.2) Prompt, thorough correspondence with host company leading up to/ during our stay, though we did run into some major communication issues regarding the major issues we experienced with this property.Upon checking in (about 8pm), the cleanliness issues were immediately apparent. The place was absolutely FILTHY. There was dirt, dust, hair, mystery stains/ substances on walls, and even visible garbage throughout the house. We have so many photos documenting this. There was a discarded fanny pack under the couch full of personal effects that seems to have been there since at least last October based on contents. We were uncomfortable and disgusted by the overall condition.The worst issue is a matter of basic security and safety. The basement was a garage space accessible into the main living area. There’s a manual garage door that had no locks/ any way of being secured and could be easily opened from inside or outside. Largest point of entry completely vulnerable. The door from basement into house couldn't be secured either; the lock was installed backward. We barricaded doors with kitchen chairs to get sleep. We voiced our issues to the host and were told it would be dealt with promptly that day, but that didn't happen. I truly wish I could post the pics and correspondences here to help others.
