I want to start by saying that Karl is a great host as far as his responsiveness. Any time I had a question , he called back immediately and walked me through the problems which included a power outage and a few more minor things. His generosity in providing excellent coffee was much appreciated!
Karl's place is really cute, and in a good location. I understand it is generally a quiet community but that wasn't our experience during our stay do to neighbors partying and construction next door.
(nothing Karl had control over)
It was a comfortable unit, but we did have some issues that we hope Karl will repair for future guests.
The unit itself is in need of maintenance, especially the missing blind slats. ) I did not expect to vacation somewhere where I had to put sheets on all the windows at night just to keep the light out so we could sleep).
In addition to the blinds, the shower doors would not open or close properly, the tub stoppers did not work, the handle to the patio door was missing, and there were food crumbs and garbage in the cracks of the sofa.
With a few minor repairs, this would be a great vacation stay.
As is... I would hesitate if you have children do to the noise, the repairs needed and his electric bike in the living room taking a lot of space and being a tipping danger to children.
