This place is nice and very conveniently located. The master bed was firm and a dream. They left us snacks and there were amenities to use for children, such as a pack and play and a high chair. So I thought it wouldn’t be an issue for our family to book this place.
First, it’s on me that I didn’t realize this was on the second floor. I’m not sure if it was mentioned anywhere.
Second, as we were boarding the plane to our weekend away I received a lengthy email about rules. Some of which weren’t in the original booking. For example, to remove our shoes in the house and walk quietly as there is an apartment downstairs. We would already remove our shoes but I get this request. But walk quietly? We aren’t going to stomp around but we have a child. I wrote to the host and they assured me that our children were welcome. But the damage had been done. An excited weekend away before I return to work from maternity leave was turned into an anxiety induced trip where i kept asking my child to sit down.
That coupled with the sand rule kind of makes me just want to stay in a hotel moving forward. We booked an air BnB to feel at home but instead felt like unwelcomed guests.
