The kitchen was cramped with a folding table and chairs for dining (not as pictured). The extra chairs were stacked against the wall and kept tipping over. It was too tight for four adults to dine together. The living room was also not as pictured. There was a small couch and a bean bag chair for seating. Again not enough room for 4 adults to relax together. There were only 2 washcloths for 4 people. The host was very responsive when we contacted her about that. The upstairs bedrooms were very spacious but could have used more bedside lamps. The beds were very comfortable.The place was spotless and in a very convenient location. We enjoyed our vacation to Bethlehem at Christmas time and we easily got to events from here. It's a good house to sleep in but not for relaxing with the family.

The property was well equipped with everything we needed. The kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked. Plenty of dishes, pots and pans, dish soap, spices, coffee maker, paper towels, TP, shampoo, conditioner, and soaps. The bedrooms had a variety of pillows to satisfy the firm a soft preferences. We will stay again if available on future trips to Bethlehem.

Everything was great, but only one roll of toilet tissue in each bath and no facial tissue. The house was clean and everything else was fine. Parking in back of the house was more than sufficient as we had 3 cars. I do wish though, that there was more than one TV.

We had issues with renting in the summer time. But this would be an ideal rental In the fall to winter months. The location is central to all activities in Bethlehem - and by the boarder of Allentown. Access to highways, entertainment and dining was spot on and within a 10 minute car ride or less.When we arrived the house temperate was around 84 degrees. There are 2 window units and 2 portal units which are placed in the bedrooms only. This means that the common spaces of kitchen, living room and bathrooms receive no AC. We had all 4 units running at maximum capacity and the house only dropped to 78 degrees within a 14 period. We reached out about the AC units as there were large gaps on each side of the units and cardboard which was under trimmed and allowing hot air from outside to come into the house. With this, one of the units on the first floor had mold that your see through the vents.The first floor smelled like sewage when entering the property - which we identified that it was coming from the first floor bathroom.

Short Stay for Medical Needs

We had a family member who was having surgery local to the area. Taylor’s property afforded us the opportunity to remain close to the hospital. The property was as described and fit our needs. Taylor was communicative and responsive. The property was comfortable.

Our family traveled to Bethlehem for our daughter's graduation from Lehigh. Taylor's home was a fantastic location. The description of the home was exact. The home was clean and well organized. Taylor is proactive, timely, and kind in his communication.We would definitely stay in Taylor's home again.

Ants and Other Safety Issues

To start, in the initial message after booking the place the owner said they would send check-in information “in the days before the trip”. I didn’t hear anything by the day before the trip so I reached out and they responded that the information would come at 11am on the check-in day. Not the biggest deal, but it’s incorrect information in the messaging. As soon as we entered the place, we were greeted by the low/no-battery beeping of a smoke detector and carbon monoxide detector. There was a second smoke detector without its battery already sitting on a shelf in the kitchen. We replaced the battery in the carbon monoxide detector for our own safety. Entering the rooms and waking up the stairs, we noticed that the railing on the stairs almost comes out of the wall when you hold it. Several doorknobs were not screwed in properly and we had to try and fix these, but we don’t travel with screwdrivers on us so we did the best we could. When I removed the water reservoir to fill up the Keurig, ants began pouring out of the machine. We then noticed that there were ants all over the kitchen including in the groceries we bought ruining the food. This would continue all weekend.When contacted, the owner shared a receipt of a pest control service that had been out on Thursday to spray but said they couldn’t come out again until Monday. They offered to refund some money but then never followed up on how to do that.
