Our stay at Art's house wasn't the worst BUT it wasn't the absolute best either. He was very quick in his responses and we had an easy check-in. The biggest problem was they were doing work on their water systems I'm assuming so the water was turned off from 8am-approx. 5pm 4 out of the 7 days that we were there. It was unfortunate that we had to plan something to be out of the house because of this. The last note they left on the door the day we were leaving said no water from the 9th thru the 12th. Unfortunate for the people renting it next.
The patio table wasn't wiped down either when we arrived which was a bit uninviting and that led to us not wanting to use the bbq grill.
I truly don't want to sound so negative because Art seems nice but I was expecting a little bit more out of our first experience in California.
My husband works at a prestigious company and I really thought he'd be able to give a wonderful recommendation but now he wants to pick the next airbnb.
