Microwave did not work because there wasn’t a plug any place near the microwave. One of the beds was only a mattress no box spring. The living room furniture was patio furniture. Only 1 TV in the living room and you have to figure it out, sign in. I understand the apps but regular tv. Landscaping was a little overgrown. We never got an email for check in/out instructions. Maybe a Binder would have helped. It wasn’t bad, cute theme for the decor it was just a few issues that can easily be fixed.
