We ended up cancelling this reservation. We were a party of 11 with 6 children. The beautiful porch in the photos was under construction (open construction site, with piles of wood, nails, holes all opening onto a steep drop down the hill), AC was broken in bedrooms while the weather was 100F+, though the host did provide 1 portable unit, which didn't help the other 4 bedrooms. There were exposed wires by the base boards by the kitchen table and what appeared to be scorch marks on the wall around it. I understand that this is a house and not a hotel and that sometimes things happen in a house, but I think that when issues arise that can impact the safety and comfort of the guests, the host should communicate those issues so guests can make an informed decision. The issues did not happen the day of or even the day before the reservation, so the host had the opportunity and chose not to. I am sure when these issues are resolved that it would be a perfectly fine property.
