The good: lovely house, good-sized rooms, clean, welcoming curbside appearance, nice layout, comfortable primary suite bed, nice quiet neighborhood, affordable, quick responses from the host. The bad: not enough plates or bowls for the size of our party, toilet paper ran out, no dishwasher detergent even though dishwasher listed as amenity, one dishrag but no towels for the kitchen — we could have used extra hand towels intended for the bathrooms but there weren’t extra, no checkout instructions so emptied garbages, took sheets off beds, put all towels and lines in laundry room, cleaned kitchen, wiped down all bathrooms The ugly: several hours after we left, the host texted us accusing our family of “stripping the floors” and leaving burn marks caused by smoking. All accusations were false…none of us even smoke! I asked for photos and videos, none of which he ever provided. He threatened to file a claim against us (I suppose because we had accidental damage policy?) I continued to push back. Eventually, he backed down and said the floors were fine but that there was still damage. This is untrue. In the end he agreed. The home was lovely. But buyer beware. Take pics when you arrive and when you leave no matter your host.
