First of all the house was listed “sold” in 2017... and the pictures for that listing are the ones listed here on air b&b ...so basically what I’m saying is they’re outdated. I am SHOCKED at the positive reviews regarding this house. Before our stay we messaged the host asking for recommendations on things to do and received no response.
First when we arrived none of the overhead lighting worked in the main living areas ...the ceilings were too high for us to just change the light bulbs ...so it was a very dark stay. Next i went to the back area which i was looking forward to, to find that it had been partially destroyed by what looks like a fire from the next door property and was definitely not visually appealing. The home also had no smoke detectors and they had clearly been removed.
We stayed a total of 5 nights and planned to do laundry but discovered the washer does not work. We then attempted to wash a dish in the right side of the sink and realized it did not drain, the garbage disposal did not work and it had a fowl smell of rotten milk.
Later in our stay we attempted to start the dishwasher which after a few minutes started to pour out onto the kitchen floor.
We text the host regarding these incidents which they responded that they would have someone look at it and that they were sorry.
The home stayed very cool despite July temperatures outside. There is a lot of noise outside the home but there are two window air conditioners upstairs that drown out the noise but if you’re a light sleeper it’s something to consider. There was always parking right outside the home. It is in a convenient location that is close to everything. As the listing says the walls are very thin and you can hear pretty much everything next door.
Overall i would say the home was 3 stars, just not what was expected.
