Good: Beautiful home, very spacious, clean and tastefully decorated.
Not so good: The entire house is a straight line. The first bedroom area (also part of the living room) leads into second bedroom which leads into third bedroom which finally leads to the kitchen etc. Although the house is big enough for several guests, it’s ideal for a single family only. Also when you are facing the thermostat , the part of house to the right was much colder than the left which was always warm.
Bad: Not much privacy. There are double sliding doors between the bathroom and the laundry area as well as between the laundry area and the kitchen which don’t stay put. Even when closed there is couple of inches of opening on both sides of door. it’s very hard to use the bathroom unless everyone else is thrown out of couple of rooms closest to the bathroom.
Worse: The roof started leaking very badly the morning after we checked in, we had to keep some kitchen utensils to catch the water. Unfortunately it was right above the luggage rack and our bags got wet. We messaged and called the host immediately and we were put in touch with a property manager who promised to send someone to clean the mess but the repairman was going to come only the following day since it was a weekend. Thankfully the leak stopped after couple of hours and we went out sightseeing. When we came back noticed that no one had stopped by to clean the wet floors, we had to call the host again and finally it was taken care of.
Several power outlets in the home were not working. I had to use the flat iron sitting on the living room floor since none of the bathroom outlets worked.
The repairman who was supposed to come next day to fix above issues never showed up. The host tried to follow up only few days later when we were ready to check out. She was sorry for the inconvenience and gave a $100 credit.
Overall I didn’t feel like the house was worth it since we paid more than $1000 for 4 nights. I did provide feedback to the host on all these issues and hopefully they will be taken care of.
