We appreciated the smooth check-in, the early 2 pm arrival the host allowed, and that the place was clean on entry. The location was easy to find with a straightforward driveway, and the backyard with string lights around a seating area was a plus too and the front porch made for a nice spot to sit with friends, had to use the chairs from the backyard to sit on the front porch in the morning. Board games were a nice touch, and the stovetop worked fine for simple cooking like ramen. That said, there were several issues that affected the stay. The oven had been lined with foil, which is a safety hazard, so we removed it. We also found old fries in the stove drawer. The front of the stove drawer and the dishwasher face needed to be wiped down, even though the dishwasher interior was clean. There were markings on some walls especially behind the couch, and one of the outdoor chairs cracked under normal use. Basic kitchen equipment was incomplete too, there was no baking sheet, which pushed us to eat out. Towels existed but were hard to locate, tucked away in a back bedroom closet rather than somewhere intuitive in the bathroom. Overall it is a convenient location and has some nice touches, but the foil-lined oven and leftover food in the stove area were unacceptable. We’d still consider coming back because the place has potential and we liked the outdoor spaces and easy check-in. We just hope these issues are addressed before our next visit so the stay matches the positives.
