Too expensive to be this bad
I hate to leave a bad review, especially since the owner tried to be attentive and helpful, but we won’t be staying here again. We’ve been staying in rental homes in Santa Cruz for years, so we don’t usually expect much (most homes are pretty dated). But at least the others are sanitary and work properly. We lost power twice in 4 days, my husband was too skeeved to use the hot tub, the garbage disposal was broken, and the yard (which is enormous) is full of holes and dead grass to the point the kids couldn’t play out there for risk of breaking an ankle. The tv doesn’t work (no cable and or streaming accounts to use). The pots and pans are so old and scratched up and gross (maybe even dangerous). The ice maker’s broken and just keeps making ice, which makes a mess of the freezer and drips all over the floor. Basically the house is held together with bubble gum. And there was construction behind the house (outside the primary bedroom) and the city was doing work on the street so there were metal plates and smelly asphalt all over. Would have appreciate a head’s up and the choice whether we wanted to live through all that. We stayed there because of the location, which is awesome. But we won’t stay again. I have no idea how on earth others rated this 10/10.
