Good House with a lot of Potential
I went back and forth on giving our stay 3, 4,or 5 stars. I’m giving 5 stars because I believe this is a new thing to the owners of the property and they were very pleasant so I don’t want to discourage future visitors. There was just a couple things to note and hopefully change:
1. There’s supposedly a person who rents out and lives in the basement. Nowhere in the advertisement did it say that. I didn’t know we wouldn’t have the house totally to ourselves until I got the check in message from the owner and they disclosed the basement resident. We never saw or heard the resident is the good news. But I’d recommend disclosing that in the add as it was pretty annoying to find out last minute.
2. The master bedroom is weirdly locked and inaccessible. I’m guessing they didn’t want people sleeping in their bed or something but considering there was someone else living in the house it felt eerie that we couldn’t access or see into the room - at least put a note that the room is a personal room and nobody’s in there or something similar would help.
3. The AC was struggling. It was 77 degrees in the house the first day and night, while it was low 70s outside. Most people would open the windows and shut off the a/c at that point. But you can’t, because there are no screens on the windows or slider doors so you just end up with flys inside. The last night the a/c did manage to get the house to around 73.
The good things - the house was clean and well supplied, and we had no issues.
