This is a hard review to write. I want to start by saying that Hector and Rosemarie were wonderful hosts. They were extremely responsive and helpful, and we had a great experience with them.
That said, the listing had some issues. Most notably, there was really not functional heating. It was explained to us when we asked that there is one radiator, on the far side of the house from two of the rooms. That radiator hardly put out any heat, let alone enough to reach the living room or two of the bedrooms. There was another radiator which we were told does not work. The nights we spent there got below freezing, and the lack of heat was an issue. We raised this with Hector and Rosemarie, who were kind enough to bring over two space heaters for us late at night. Again, they were wonderful hosts, but the lack of adequate heating in the house should be noted, especially on cold nights.
Part of the the draw to this listing was the commitment to “enhanced clean.” However, upon arrival we found a half drunk water bottle in a bedroom, a small sticky spill on the kitchen floor, and a quite smudgy sliding glass door to the back. In the ongoing pandemic, we were a little uncomfortable with the cleanliness of the home.
Otherwise, this is a good place. The beds and couch were comfy, the absolutely gargantuan TV was nice, and the area was a nice neighborhood to walk the dogs. Hector and Rosemarie were great hosts, but the heating and cleanliness situation was tough for us.
