The place is charming and as described by Molly.
However our stay took a bad turn within hours of our arrival. We drove 6 1/2 hours to get there, checked in then went to dinner. When we came back around 9pm, we were relaxing and the incident began. It started around 10pm with a party that had been going on since we arrived at 5:30pm. It was a 16th birthday party that unfortunately involved underage drinking and very loud screaming and shouting of profanities and overall rude behavior. Around 11:30pm, there was a loud knocking at our door from a young girl, then a young man asking if we ordered door dash. My husband responded “No”. Then they began loudly speaking and were slamming the doors of a vehicle now parked right in front of our window. Around midnight as the yelling became worse, my husband went outside to see about the commotion. He was met by the mother of the children that were having the party. He was told by her and another young man that her daughters were partying with a group of young men they had met, and right in front of our window, one of the young men brandished a firearm in his pants and forced the girls to go with him and his companions. There was a security guard out front on Mission Road whom the lady told the entirety of the story, of which the security ignored, and at this point the mother called the police. The police then showed up approximately 15-20 minutes later and the mother hysterically recounted everything to the police, and understandably so. After an hour or so, we decided after checking with other hotels in the area to just end our visit as the entire getaway was ruined. The hotel rates were ridiculous for a check in at 1:45am, so we just decided to drive straight home with no sleep!
This was our first getaway just the two of us in over 15 years to celebrate our 34th anniversary. There was no empathy or even offered partial compensation for this experience. Airbnb's communication format does not send you any record of your communication with the host. So if you do experience anything make sure you take a snapshot of every message sent. This was something I regret not doing.
I have worked in hospitality in a very high end hotel for over 10 years and I understood airbnb to be more personable and hospitable of an experience, which my husband and I were looking forward to. I really hope this kind of experience doesn't happen again. It was very disheartening how everything happened and how things were handled.
