This property and the management need some help to be a place I would recommend, but I think they can get there!
First, the good: It’s a pretty large home with an absolutely fantastic living room and view. The location is just excellent. The bedrooms are comfortable and they have nice mattresses.
Next, what needs help: The place just has not been kept up for a while. The shower curtain was moldy nearly halfway up and all the way along it was yellowed with visible mold (the host sent us a replacement, which we then hung ourselves, a task!). There was no bathmat, there are multiple surfaces with peeling and cracked paint, and there was dust and animal hair on the side.Tables beside the beds. The curtains in the bedrooms seem decades old, and there are absolutely no curtains of any kind in the living room and kitchen. The hedges outside are so overgrown you can’t even walk up to the house without walking into the yard.
The host was responsive with questions, and very nice about trying to solve things, but unfortunately, we had to keep writing him because more things kept coming up! Overall, I think this place just needs some attentiveness because it could be so much better.
