We arrived 11pm, no problem finding the house, no problem finding street parking. Entrance was easy waver was on table since there was no one to meet us at that time. Beautiful house, loved the decor. Headed out the door to our room... the very narrow older wooden staircase was hard to traverse with luggage. In the low lighting it was hard to see the jungle of an out door living space. There was a couple sitting on the deck just outside our door watching their phone. We said hello to them as we passed... they didn’t seem interested so we continued to our room. Upon entering our “cabin” I was surprised to see it was basically a finished off tuff shed. Immediately my husband who is only 6 foot 1 inch was given a head whacking with the ceiling fan. The room was cold and attempt to get the tiny portable heater working failed. The “bathroom” had no door (as the photo shows) only a curtain. Being midnight at this point we said forget it and went to bed. The wall the bed is against was so cold I had to place pillows to insulate from the cold. I will say that bed was Very comfortable, I fell asleep fast...only to be woken minutes later to the shed shaking from the plane flying over head. Using the ear plugs from in the main house I managed to get back to sleep as the planes had finally stopped. At 4:30 am when used the toilet upon flushing it it woke the dead with the loud sound of the water pump and ear piercing sound of an alarm and flashing light coming from the toilet. My husband jumping up (hitting his head on the fan again) trying to see what the alarm was reading the instructions on the toilet finally had to unplug it. At this point tired and cold and unable to fall back asleep due to the chaos of the toilet... the final straw was the planes that started again at 6am...every 9-13 minutes.
No we did not contact the owner (at 5am) because most of the problems we had were not something he could fix. The room was so small there was no was no way we spend a week there. It was thanksgiving and the idea of 5 hours of sleeping next to a cold wall before the planes started in was not our idea of a joyful holiday. The outside shower, while I’m sure is quaint in the summer was not appealing at the end of November in the cold rain. We made the choice to exit the property and find more suitable accommodations for ourselves after only being there 6 total hours. This property maybe suitable some, it just wasn’t for right for us. I did not contact the owner and did not ask for any compensation due to his replies (on here and on Yelp that we found later) to others who were unhappy with his place. Lesson learned on our part. Good luck to the owner and others who stay with him.
