Oh, boy.
This place was charming and had a great location but we had TONs of issues with our stay.
The place was super dusty, including lots of spider webs inside. Not the kind that happens in a day or two as the host claimed. The sheet (yes, there was only one...host did order a new set and had them sent the next day) for the very uncomfortable pullout sofa looked dirty but on closer inspection were just full of cobwebs from the cupboard they were stored in. The new sheets were 100% polyester, for those who care about things like that...I guess I do.
The floor was also dusty/dirty. The back screen door had lots of holes in the screen...letting in mosquitos and maybe the large roach I found inside on my last day (I've lived in TX so I'm not totally squeamish, but we shouldn't be finding that many bugs indoors). In addition, we didn't have enough towels so we ended up doing laundry.
In addition, despite following the directions TO THE LETTER, we couldn't get the AC to work without shutting off every minute and then it would cycle back on...didn't cool off the house enough to sleep comfortably. Finally, we actually needed the heat one night as it got down into the 50's, but when we tried to get that to work, it wouldn't get off cold on/off mode (AC). Very frustrating. We ran out of soap in the bathroom, as well.
In addition, for longer stays it would be nice to have a chest of drawers, bedside table and decent hangers for guests. These are only suggestions and didn't factor in the rating.
I really had expected cleaner accomodations. The host mostly just had denial and excuses for the issues, but he did solve the lack of sheet problem while we were there.
The potential for this place is outstanding--it's adorable and maybe these things won't bother you. Most of the places I've stayed at via Airbnb have been really awesome and cleanliness hasn't been an issue.
