Disliked: Cleanliness

Its ok.

The temperature in the house was ridiculous, it was anywhere from 74 to 78 inside. The door on the back deck where you would come in after parking cars, never worked. You couldnt get it opened 98% of the time, so someone would have to go to the other door to open it. Very disappointing as we had stayed at this house previously years ago.
