Uninhabitable Conditions, Host Refused to ResolveWe booked this home for a bachelor weekend with a group of 8. Unfortunately, the property was completely uninhabitable and the host made no meaningful effort to resolve the issues despite being contacted immediately.The problems were serious:•Multiple bugs in the bedrooms (I even pulled one off myself in bed at 2:30am).•AC units poorly sealed, allowing pests inside.•Mold on the shower curtains.•Strong musty odor throughout the basement.Because of these conditions, I personally could not stay overnight in the house. I booked a hotel down the street for the entire weekend at my own expense (receipts available). I only came back to the property during the day to spend time with my group. I made all of this clear to the host right away, yet my concerns were brushed aside and no remedies were offered.When I requested a refund, the host not only refused but falsely claimed we had a dog (it was a neighbor’s, not ours). This was extremely frustrating and unprofessional. Communication was slow, dismissive, and often off-point, which I suspect may be a language barrier—but regardless, there was zero accountability or care shown to a paying guest.In the end, I had to take this to Vrbo and my credit card company. This is exactly the type of situation travelers hope to avoid when booking through a trusted platform.Bottom line: this home is not worth the cost—or any cost. Between the bugs, mold, odor, and host’s refus

Now what we expected for the price

We were disappointed with our stay, as the property did not match the listing and had multiple maintenance, cleanliness, and safety concerns. The home was not very clean upon arrival—there was visible dust and grime in several areas. The basement rooms had water stains on the ceilings, and all window AC units were poorly sealed, leaving gaps to the outside with visible mold inside. The dishwasher also had mold, and the oven appeared not to have been cleaned in quite some time. As a result, we ended up eating out instead of preparing meals. The owner claimed the appliances were new, but the listing stated they were new in 2021 and they were clearly not well maintained.Of the three toilets, one didn’t flush due to rusted internal parts, and another had a missing seat bolt. The patio door had no functioning lock and was held closed by a loose piece of wood, which felt very unsafe. None of these issues were addressed during our stay.Several advertised features were missing—there was no home gym or 300-inch projector screen, and the outdoor fire pit was completely overgrown and unusable. The listing photos appear outdated and do not reflect the property’s current condition.We contacted the host about these concerns but received minimal response, and only a partial refund of the cleaning fee was offered which we didn't accept. With better maintenance and more accurate advertising, this could be a decent rental—but in its current state, we cannot recommend it.

That garage is not very clean therefore we did.not consider using. My biggest issue was we had not heat which we realized at 8:00 in the morning oh my daughters wedding. I messaged host and

Property is ideally located for the casinos. A little bit further then advertised but still an easy drive to both. Communication with Joe was easy and the house was exactly what we expected. There was 8 of us and it catered to all of our needs. 3 bathrooms was a huge plus with that many people. Overall quite happy with our stay

Great spot tucked away in Norwich

Kitchen island is great for meals/games, pool table and sound system are added bonuses that make you feel at home if you’re staying in for the night. If you’re going out, the Mohegan Sun and other attractions are only a few minutes drive, but just far enough that you’re away from the action when coming home at the end of the night.
