The house was spacious and had enough room for our large group, which was a big plus. Unfortunately, a few issues made the stay less enjoyable. There was no hot water in the basement, the bed on the top floor was half broken, and the garbage bin outside was already overflowing with trash scattered on the ground. The host said someone would come to clean it up, but no one ever did, so the garbage sat there for our entire stay.Communication with the host was also very difficult. I reached out almost 20 hours before check-in for entry instructions and didn’t hear back until just 30 minutes before check-in time. On check-out day, I let him know the outdoor bin was full and that we’d have to leave garbage inside, but he didn’t respond until four hours after we’d already checked out.Overall, the space itself has potential and worked for accommodating a bigger group, but the lack of upkeep and the poor communication were disappointing. Future guests should be aware of these issues, and hopefully the host can make improvements to create a more comfortable experience.
