Overall, this was a good stay. There were a few issues that I communicated about with Daniel in real-time. He was responsive with regards to these issues, but I still want potential renters to be aware:
-There was no hand soap on check in, and there were partially dry/mildewy sheets and towels in the dryers, so the cleaners may have overlooked a few things. I notified Daniel and hand soap was delivered the next morning - in the interim we had to use dish soap. There was also only one small travel size shampoo/conditioner (and no body wash) provided for 4 travelers for 5 days, but some of us had brought our own so this wasn't a big deal.
-The listing mentioned a microwave drawer - during our stay (October 2022) there was no microwave in the drawer for our use.
-One of the bedroom doors does not stay closed. I believe this is due to warping of the wood but this was quite frustrating. Daniel was notified of this issue during our stay and will hopefully re-do the latch. Similarly, there were some issues with getting the front door to lock/unlock - the door needs to be pulled/held in the closed position. Again, perhaps due to the heat?
-The biggest issue was that two of the bedrooms had very finicky lights - they would turn on randomly during the night. I made Daniel aware of this issue and he was able to suggest some potential solutions - however, on that particular night, the issue didn't happen. When it happened again the next day, I looked at his suggestions but honestly did not feel comfortable fiddlingwith it (he suggested an air gap, I didn't know what that is and didn't want to text and bother him late at night to clarify, and also was afraid of breaking/messing something up, so i just left it). I ended up buying an eye mask. Again, hopefully he will address this issue before the next guest, and it is not debilitating, but just an issue to be aware of.
Overall however we had a good stay and Daniel was a pleasant host who worked quickly to address issues.
