Liked: Cleanliness, location, listing accuracy
Disliked: Check-in
We had a hard time contacting someone to get in since the passcode to the door wasn't working. 45 mins later someone contacted us to give us a code to get a set of keys since the door code system wasn't working. 44 mins with 2 very young kids tired of being in the car and cold.... we even sent a message no reasponds. We were left with half a roll of paper towls for 2 familys and 3 kids. No back up. Had to call around to see who was open on Christmas.... not how i wanted to spend a part of my Christmas especially when we paid to have those kind of amenities available. All rentals we have ever stayed at gave us 1 back up roll. The 1 ply toilet paper was really annoying. We ended up using twice as much. Your not saving monry by giving guest the cheap tp. The heater in the master bedroom needs yo be fixed; loud buzzing after a few mins of heat blowing. Woke my daughter abd myself up a few times through the night.... Other than that the place was beautiful and clean. We appreciate the kid toys. Other than the hiccups we enjoyed our time.
