I'll give you the good, the bad, and the uglyGood: Pet friendly property! Backyard is completely fenced so your fur baby is safe. Backyard is good size and has a table with chairs. The shower was larger and has good water pressure which was nice. Location was close to restaurants, grocery store, etc. Quiet street low traffic. Kitchen has a stove, dishwasher, full size fridge. Stocked well. Amazon Fire Smart TV so we could watch our shows. The beach is in walkable distance but can't see it from the house. You can hear the seals in the distance. Large closet in master bedroom but needs more hangers since there is no other place to put your clothes.Bad: No couch! Just some hard table like futon that was so uncomfortable. Zero support and made it difficult to relax and watch TV. The bed in the Master bedroom is small and really uncomfortable as well. The bathroom was done nicely, but it's a tight fit between the toilet and the sink. Pretty bare minimum inside. No dresser to put your clothes in.Ugly: The outside of the property is full of weeds and you can tell there's no love given to landscape. Front entrance has an army of ants in front of the door. The futon in the second bedroom was broken. The legs are all broken. If they add a comfortable couch, upgrade the bed to a Cal-King size, add a night stand, and get some real furniture around the house it would greatly improve the overall experience. Hire a gardner to clean up the yard. It could be a nice place.

Quiet neighborhood. Restful. House was clean and comfortable. Carpet would have been nice. Exterior grounds messy and dissheveled. Owner responded promptly to requests.

It was okay. Has an unpleasant smell that gets you as soon as you walk in. Not enough pillows or the right pillows. No couches to enjoy watching tv besides a very hard what appear to be a table with a padding on it and a quilt. The futon inside the room where the bunk beds are, it’s very uncomfortable. You are better off bringing blow up mattresses. Entrance to house area by door looks unclean with spiderwebs all around. All the outside area is unkempt and looks abandoned. Also being asked to place towels and sheets in washing machine before leaving I find it unprofessional for a business that you are being charge a fee for cleaning. It was a different type of experience. For sure lots of room for improvement.
