Would not reccomend these hosts. This could be a great place, but do not expect assistance if there is something wrong with your boat.
Check in was smooth, instructions were easy to follow. Less expensive than renting an apartment which was nice. House boat was descent, not super clean which was dissapointing (condom wrappers next to the couch, dirty ac filters, and lots of water stains).
We really would have overlooked this all, but upon checking in we noticed the AC units did not have power. (They were connected to a seperate dock post). We messaged the host who told us someone would come out and take a look. I then receieved a text around an hour later which said "we understand the ac on the slip away is not running yet. It is supposed to get quite cool over the next few hours. All of the windows in the stateroom can be opened. Do you think you will be okay?"
The stateroom had two side windows (one of which could not be repositioned due to the ac cables going through it) and one overheard window. As it was raining that evening the overhead could not be opened.
My husband and I responded that we would appreciate if someone came out to look as it was concerning that the equipment was not properly conneceted/powerless and that we were not comfortable staying with out ac. We booked the accomdation understanding that we could enjoy our 90 degree weekend with a place to take a break from the heat.
At the very least they could have brought us a fan, instead they ghosted us on all platforms.
Really wouldn't advise staying with these hosts. Pay an extra 50 bucks and stay with someone who cares about the quality of the places they are renting.
