I can’t recommend anyone to stay in this house. I chose this spot because I saw no bad reviews for this place when I was looking for a place to stay in Dallas with my parents while in town for a funeral. Unfortunately, the house was very dirty.
The check-in process was not smooth (wasn’t sent the code to smart lock until after I arrived and messaged them. Got the code almost 20 minutes later), and the house was simply not cleaned. It was immediately obvious that the house hasn’t been thoroughly cleaned in a long time. Cobwebs in corners, ants in the kitchen (around the oven area), dusty blinds and windowsills, and dirty floors, walls and appliances. The bathtub had some hair in it and the secondary toilet hadn’t been fully cleaned.
When I found stains on three duvet covers, I felt I couldn’t trust the house was properly cleaned. GoCrumbs warned me 20 minutes before check in that the washer was broken, so I couldn’t even wash the comforter covers and sheets. They sent cleaners to the house on the first night to replace the duvet covers but for my own peace of mind I wanted to be able to wash all the linens before sleeping in them, which I was unable to do. A technician fixed the washer on day 2, but informed me that the washer and dryer couldn’t be used at the same time because of some electrical issue.
FYI about the game/TV room, you’ll need to move things around to be able to play pool in the small space. Communication with the host was good for the most part. It was not great to have multiple people in and out of the house while we stayed there, when we needed quiet time.
TL;DR it was obvious the house has not been throughly cleaned in a while, made our stay stressful and uncomfortable.
