The house was decent for our weekend stay.The main draw for me was the kitchen. But as far as esthetics, the couch needed to be cleaned as there were some stains on it. Also, the shower curtain in the first floor bathroom had mildew at the bottom. Now for check-in, I would suggest the owner provide the code to enter the house the morning of the reservation. Our check-in was for 4pm. I initially messaged around 3:00 as we arrived earlier than expected. I then called a couple times after 4 and it kept going to voicemail. I didn't receive a call back until 4:30, which was after I had contacted Airbnb. The owner said his phone had died. The owner was communicative for the remainder of the trip.
