We were so excited to stay there, until we got there. The fridge wasnt working and when I told the host that, they said can you test the outlet behind the fridge to make sure its working. In order to do that, i have to move the fridge. I tested the outlet and told them it was the outlet that wasnt working and asked them if i could just plug the fridge into another outlet cause i had already bought perishables. Haha, there response was we dont want you to move the fridge for your own safety, sorry! Kind of counter intuitive considering i had to move it to check the outlet. They sent someone the next day to fix the outlet. Meantime, as I was instructed to move the fridge, i found an old sausage dried up behind the fridge. Ewww
Then i go to take a shower and there is hair in the shower. GROSS. And a used bar of soap. A recommendation: at that price, dont put used amentities in the shower. Buy the shower caddies that you can refill so people dont feel gross about using things others have used.
As i was checking amenities which stated that they have toilet paper, paper towels etc. I realized that there was only 1 role of toilet paper in each bathroom for 4 people for a 4 night stay. So i had to go buy my own. Also, the same with the paper towels. Left some behind, your welcome.
As stated on the site, there was a set of towels for each guest. For a 3 bedroom apartment, there was only 1 set of towels for each room.
The TV's are all signed into a Netflix that you cant sign out of. Strange.
When we arrived, we nearly broke our neck on the steps that lead down to the door. There was a make shift staircase with a very short first step. All four of us nearly tripped on that step. If you know that your steps are broken, dont rent the place out.
Moving forward to Wednesday, someone came to fix the step, which kept us trapped in the house for a lot longer than we needed cause the host failed to tell us that this was going to fixed that day. My 77 year old father, who suffers from back problems and arthritis was trying to rest, and needed to after he had journeyed from afar, needless to say he couldnt cause of the all noise. For the price i paid at $1800, i would have expected better.
The location is great cause it was central to everything we needed to do. We were visiting my fathers brother as he was on his death bed.
If you use the conventional toaster, be careful, the smoke detector is very sensitive.
If you are renting a car, its street parking btw. They fail to tell you that in there welcome email.
Also, the coded door doesnt always lock. So you have to do it a few times before it takes. Cheap lock.
Bring your own tablespoons, cause there aren't any.
Also, go buy your own dish rag, that one looked like it must have been about 2 years old.
The heater is hidden behind the door that leads into the area with two rooms.
We also had to buy our own detergent. So if you stay there this weekend, your welcome.
The set of towels we did receive had brown spots on them, so did the comforters. Yuck.!
The baseboards are filthy, the floor close to the baseboards are dusty. Go in with white socks and come out with black socks.
They warn you not to make noise, but the walls are so thin that people running at 6am will wake you up. If your looking for rest, you have come to the wrong place.
They leave used coffee and tea behind. Splurge and get individual packets so people dont feel disgusted by using it.
It looks like a relatively new house, fix the dents and nicks and scuffs. I was itching to go buy a magic eraser and do it myself, but i didnt.
Oh, and finally, if you need a late checkout for your father that can barely climb the stairs on his own, dont bother to ask. The lack of empathy in there response was, he needs to leave by 11am. He can go sit at a coffee shop and call an uber.
I hope future guests have a better experience. We surely did not. The super host rating must be from friends and family.
