Very nice stay close to Cambridge city centre

We had a wonderful stay in Cambridge. The city centre was approximately 20 minutes walking distance (or easy biking distance). Shops and restaurants nearby. Easy parking for car and bicycles. The property was very clean and many items like coffee, tea, salt, pepper were provided. Good kitchen for cooking. Nice the children had their own single rooms.

Arrogant host failed to disclose major road work

We were visiting family and friends in the Cambridge, U.K. area. The reason we rented this property was because we wanted a place with off road parking due to Cambridge's congested roadways. This property clearly advertises parking for a car on their premises. However, on arrival from Canada we find the city excavating the street in front of the property. We were not advised of this until the day of our arrival when he sent us an email. We had conversations with neighbors, and they knew that this work was going to be done months in advance. We got to a point where we could no longer be assured that we could gain access on to or off of the property with the car. The host did not apologize for the disruption and for the inconvenience that this situation gave us. He did offer us a parking pass so that we could search the surrounding residential streets for alternative parking. We did not find this satisfactory for our convenience and the security of our rental vehicle. We felt that we did not have any alternative but to search out other rental premises for the remainder of our stay. As for the property itself, it could use an interior paint job and general clean-up. The area carpet in the living room is very dirty and needs shampooing. And it should be noted that the spiral staircase is extremely narrow which makes carrying groceries etc. very precarious. In our view this rental would not be suitable for a family with children or the elderly.

Response from VrboOwner on 1 June 2023
We are sorry that you did not enjoy your stay with us. As the roadworks moved down the road, you did indeed find access blocked to our property in the second part of your stay for a few days. We offered you a free parking permit so that you could park around the corner, just 50 meters away, but this did not address the matter to your satisfaction. We strive to maintain the highest standards of cleanliness. Our property comes with its quirks such as an upstairs living area, accessible by a spiral staircase, and unusual art, which includes a kilim rug in the living room and various works from local artists. We believe this contributes to the individuality of our accommodation and seems to be appreciated by most of our guests, who award us with very high marks (between 4.7 and 4.9 stars on average). We're sorry that it didn't meet your expectations on this occasion.
