We hadn't seen on the listing that this is a duplex so that was an unwanted surprise. The beds were comfortable and clean, but the kitchen was not well stocked with utensils. The neighborhood was noisy.

Aksarben stay

We stayed at this property during the Aksarben livestock show. Property was just as described. Nothing fancy but we were only there to sleep and shower. We did have trouble getting in and out of the property with the lock box on the front door. If that process could be streamlined a bit it would be all 5 stars!

Not good, Al should not be a VRBO host.

Was not told it was a duplex, we'd be sharing with a neighbor who kept a barking dog. Toilet clogged repeatedly and ultimately stopped flushing. Wifi too weak to even use email. 5 remotes and couldn't figure out the TV, asked the owner and he didn't know, either. Plug-in air fresheners were gaggingly over powering. No written instructions anywhere for anything. No recycling. No kleenex.
