The house and pool itself were great and as expected. The host was terrible and unresponsive. The lights at the pool didn't work so I contacted the host. It took him over 48 hours to respond after sending the same message again. It took him 3 days just to turn them on via an app. He also never responded to my question about what to do with the trash once it's full. It wasn't clear from the photos that the only parking spot for your car/truck is right next to the pool area. Also, the road directly in front of the house is RIDICULOUSLY loud! All throughout the day or night, there's semi trucks, loud motorcycles, and speeding cars racing by. It's so loud that you have to stop talking and wait about 10-15 seconds until you can continue. That's inside AND outside. The bed was very hard and not comfortable so combined with the loud road noise, I barely slept. The front and back door both have about a 1/4" gap under them so bugs, frogs, and geckos easily walk right in. The locks are also very annoying and you have to use the key to get out of the house and to open the door from the outside when the door closes. It's very easy to lock yourself out. The pool was not heated, which it didn't say it was, but it's worth mentioning since it was too cold to swim in most days.
