We did not expect the house to be so nicely decorated for Christmas. It was beautiful. Clean, spacious, lots of towels and linens. Due to a late check in I was did not see the keypad to get in. I contacted our host (sorry) but he was more than gracious and walked me through he process of gettin into their lovely house. The listing was very accurate. Close to everything we needed in a beautiful neighborhood.

Thank you for your kind feedback. We're delighted to hear you enjoyed the Christmas decorations and the overall experience. We're glad our host could assist you promptly. It's great to know the location and amenities met your expectations.
House, yard and location to WSU worked great for our 2-week stay for our family of five. Clean house, nice neighborhood. Appreciated the big dresser drawers and laundry facilities. The finished lower level is also a nice bonus space. Only a few issues: supplies were low or empty on our arrival (toilet paper, dishwashing liquid, hand soap and shampoo/conditioner). We replenished ourselves with items in the basement storage, but for a 2-week stay I would expect to start out with topped-off supplies. Also, the kitchen cabinets, fridge and freezer all had opened food and unopened expired food. If the people (likely multiple reservations) before us didn't throw it away, housekeeping should have. Both issues were communicated to the property manager, and I believe they will be resolved moving forward.
