The house was cute and comfortable for our stay. The beds were comfortable , Linda is in property , friendly. And helpful. The house looks just like the pictures. Linda has 2 super cute and friendly dogs. The location is right off the freeway with easy access to the surrounding area.
This property is perfect for a family stay and close to the casino which we went to. Everything was clean and described wonderfully. Off street parking which was nice as well. Host was very communicative and responded quickly.

Very steep stairs access the bedrooms, and the ceilings on the upper level are slanted.
The property is in good condition. Parking is an issue, but we were told about this in advance.
We asked the host for any spare holiday decorations, and she provided a nice little tree and ornaments.
We did have an issue, the stairs in this house are extremely steep. We inquired about the steps since my elderly mom was traveling with us. The host stated that there are only 12 steps. I feel the host should have said that these stairs are very steep and not good for an elderly person. There was no sleeping accommodation on the main floor which might have alleviated this issue.
Also all of the bedrooms and the bathroom upstairs had slanted ceilings that resulted in a few bumped heads.
We had to book a hotel room for sleeping and showering. I contacted the host immediately and as expected was denied any type of refund.
We continued to use the house in the daytime for visiting with family, etc. A large pot would have been nice to have. I bought one and gave it to my daughter who lives in CT
This trip cost us an additional $700 since we had to reserve a hotel room and still pay for the VRBO.
We did try to get a partial refund from VRBO after we got home but were told it was too late. They communicated with the host and we did receive a tiny refund of $62.
Overall, this house is acceptable, if you know about the stairs and slanted ceilings in advance and are ok with them.
Great house, very home like and comfortable. Only problem we had was microwave didn’t work but we didn’t message owner as it was no big deal to use.

About the host
Hosted by Linda Theodoru
Retired great grandmother. You will see me outside working in my flower and vegetable gardens, or riding off on my bicycle. I love meeting people from all over the country and the world. I have traveled throughout Europe myself using short-term rentals, so I know what the guests will find helpful.
Why they chose this property
This house is 160 years old and was built to house workers from a mill that used to be across the street. The mill burned down and in its place is now a beautiful riverfront park with a playground, a basketball court, a soccer field and walking paths. https://www.walknorwich.org/ https://iconicnorwich.org/
What makes this property unique
It is centrally located between Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods. Only 1/2 mile from an entrance to 395, either casino and beaches can be reached within minutes.
