The overall property was nice. The downstairs inside was nicely decorated. That being said, I was under the impression that we were getting the whole house. Perhaps it was poorly advertised, as it says “entire house,” underneath the photos. I should’ve caught on when it listed with one bedroom. The “welcome” message was nice, but never got a reply back until a day or two after checkout. There were a few mishaps with the property that occurred during the stay; Trying to get ahold of the host/business partner was not easy. Beware of the carpet pieces, as they hold sneaky little “stick-a-bers” that poke the crap outta you when you least expect it. The bed was incredibly comfortable. Spacious kitchen/dining area.
