TL;DR: Great location, good stay, but unsatisfactory essentials.
The feedback from previous guests reflects this place to be a hit and miss. For us, it's a huge miss.
Let's start with toilet paper. I've never had a place that offered me a meagre supply of two toilet rolls for a family of four for four days. Those were the loose-fitting kind that you know would run out quickly. To make things worse, we happen to have guests coming over for dinner.
Something's grossly amiss if you have to ask the host to deliver more toilet paper, and they in return ask you to buy it from the supermarket (though they are willing to reimburse us—I was like, no thanks).
Also, the garbage wasn't picked up the next day. We saw a cat walking outside. So we had to bring the trash back inside. If the cat rips open the garbage bag and spills over the waste, the onus would be on us—can't let that happen. But who wants to accumulate garbage inside the house?
By the second day of our trip, I was done with the management. I knew they wouldn't come over or send anyone to take care of things for us. We took things into our own hands.
Let's talk about other essentials. The body wash was also missing initially—something that had never happened with our Airbnb experience before. The kettle gave out white residues and was unusable. The backup one was leaking. The oil and pepper were long expired in 2021 and 2016 respectively.
The wi-fi was dismal. It allowed only three devices to be used at the same time. If one person watches Netflix, it leaves you with only two more. I had to work during the stay. After some struggles with the unbelievably slow wi-fi, I gave up and used my 4G for the rest of the time.
In truth, these are minor nags but enough to sap a pleasant feeling from you.
Now on to the positives.
The owner responded promptly and nicely. They remotely solved some of our problems but had not done enough.
The location is great. The heaters and shower worked as expected. No hassles on those.
Overall, the stay was disappointing. We're here for a holiday, not a trip as ascetics. To the host: please be more generous with your supplies and check worn-out and expired items.
