Response from VrboOwner on 30 May 2026
Thank you for your feedback. I’m glad you found the location convenient, the bed comfortable, and that I was attentive to your requests during your stay.
I was surprised to read some of your concerns, as they were never brought to my attention while you were here. I make a point of checking in with guests and repeatedly encourage them to let me know if anything needs attention so I can address it promptly.
Regarding cleanliness, the suite is thoroughly cleaned and prepared before every guest arrival and again after each stay. Had any specific cleaning concerns been communicated during your visit, I would have been happy to address them immediately.
I would also like to clarify the statement regarding privacy. Any access to the property was communicated in advance, and I kept you informed every step of the way. At no point did anyone enter the space without prior notice or communication.
As for amenities, the listing clearly describes what is included in the suite. The location of the bathroom and the kitchen setup are accurately represented in the listing details and photos so guests can make an informed decision before booking.
During your stay, the only requests you communicated were for a hair dryer and additional heat. I provided a hair dryer and purchased a heater to make your stay more comfortable. No other concerns were raised despite multiple invitations to let me know if anything needed attention.
I genuinely strive to provide a positive experience for every guest and am always willing to help when concerns are communicated during the stay.
Mike it was a pleasure to have you and Christine as guests. You’re always welcome to come back anytime.
Communication was great and you took great care of the apartment.
Thank you.
About the host
Hosted by Alexa
I’m an interior designer with a passion for creativity and aesthetics. I love animals, especially dogs, and enjoy spending time in nature. I’m into skateboarding and longboarding, and my husband introduced me to Muay Thai, which I really enjoy. I’m always up for extreme sports and adventure, and I love getting lost in novels and fiction whenever I have free time. I love being a host because I understand what it’s like to be away from home. My goal is to provide the best experience possible, making every guest feel comfortable and cared for. I make sure my studio offers all the comforts and conveniences that help guests feel relaxed, safe, and truly at home during their stay.
