The place was beautiful, great location, and easily accommodated 8 adults. The host was a bit overbearing. To bother a guest at 6 AM while they're on vacation and demand responses is inappropriate. I was surprised and frustrated by the threat made to get AirBnB involved because I hadn't responded or "verified my phone number" within a few hours. We called and texted the hosts' mother, as requested, prior to check-in. The issue of 'verifying my number' could have been easily resolved by communication with her.
The basement rooms were pretty warm as there were no working AC units down there. I understand things happen, especially in old homes. However, when it's 100 degrees, non-working AC units should be listed in the property description. It seems that we weren't the first guests to experience this issue. We bought fans and left them there (couldn't take them on the plane) - just an FYI for future guests!
Overall, we had a great stay. It was great to be centrally located and close to everywhere we wanted to go. The beds were very comfortable, the place was clean and it had all the amenities that we were after.
