Nice little place in the woods for a quick get away from the city. The place comes with a private fenced in yard that was great for our dogs to explore. We enjoyed many of the features and amenities: steam shower with essential oil provided by hosts, bidet and heated toilet seat, remote controlled fireplace that warmed up the entire place in minutes, sound system and TVs were all great. Gps took us right there, parking was easy, and hiking trails were right by the property.
However, some very noisy and smelly construction nearby which soured enjoyment of the outdoor spaces especially, we had to close all window and doors to keep the sound and smell out. They also seem to rely heavily on the guests to perform own cleaning -- strip and pack linens, dishes, garbage, etc. Covid is cited as a reason, and we certainly understand why the hosts would have caution for themselves, but the result is that guests have to deal with the risk of not knowing how well previous guests may have cleaned, especially when a full cleaning fee is charged.
During our stay, hosts were concerned that a prior guest had reported the oven wasn't working (leaking gas?), and contacted us early in the morning wanting to send in a repairman during our relaxing two-day getaway. We realize that for the hosts, this is a business and a job (we also host on AirBnB). For guests it is our rest and vacation that we pay for. Repairs and maintenance should happen when the unit is vacant. (Turns out the oven was working after all and no repair needed. With more than a few hours of vacancy between bookings, reports like these can be confirmed instead of relying on guesswork).
