2/10 Terrible

Peter M.

Most of my VRBO stays have been fine, but this was terrible. My dealings with Nick Marchuck, the property manager, have been poor, and I don't think he is giving any consideration to my request for a partial refund based mainly on repeated problems in gaining entry to the property and problems with the unit. I would like to deal with someone else. 3 Photos will be sent separately on request.

The property was in a fantastic location. Communication with the host was excellent, and the check in/out process was seamless. Clean room and pet friendly! The only downside was the bed and pillows were uncomfortable, but you can’t beat the location and price.
