We stayed here for 4 nights on a family vacation. Reviews were written with the context that the house was rented at $500+ per night:
Pros:
- Quiet, safe, and convenient location. Side street, but only minutes from Mission Bay
- Good amenities, washing machine, etc.
- Great aesthetics
Cons:
- Very creaky hardwood floor in the master bedroom. Anybody walking around in the room at night would wake up other sleeping guests. Suggest to add carpet.
- Lack of some baseline amenities. 3 bed sets were provided perhaps because there were 3 beds. For a party of 4 people checking in, if anyone prefer not sharing a set, we’d have an issue. Suggest to always prepare bed sets based on the number of people. We unfortunately found out late at night, so the first night was not great. We raised the issue to the management/owner the next day, and they provided a new set extremely quickly, which was really appreciated.
- One toilet was clogged after use but there wasn’t a plunger. The management/owner addressed the issue extremely quickly, which was really appreciated.
- Various oddities - ex: Roomba being programmed to clean at 11pm (waking family up two nights in a row until we figured out the problem.)
- Below were some of the todos pasted straight from the guest handbook that we do not think should be done by guests. It's one thing to keep the house clean and in good condition during the stay, but we’ve never been asked by any hotel or airbnb host to:
a) Any debris, rubbish and discards removed from the home.
j) Please take all your trash and recyclables to the bins.
We checked in on a trash collection day. The bins were out on the street blocking critical rear street view when we backed out our car from the parking spot; It was not clear that guests need to take care of the bins. In combination with trash requirement above, we ended up pulling all the bins in. There was dog poo on the yard path for bins and we almost stepped on it.
