As an airbnb manager myself, I know how important reviews are and that's what I went on when choosing this house....I felt I had been fooled. Pictures are not worth a thousand words, they can also be deceiving.
Let me say that Eric is great at communicating and very helpful and responsive. I am sure he depends on airbnbs to help support himself and his family so I'm not trying to take that away from him. I do think however some things need to be addressed. I will only list facts not opinions.
1. It was a basic clean job yet dusty, cobwebs, dirty windows, stained furniture cushions and the house smells musty and the living rug smells of urine.
2. I had a big family and we wanted to use the pizza oven and he discourage use to both me and my kids at separate times. He also explained the wood alone would cost $30 for 3 bundles to just get the oven hot enough..I don't think it's part of the package so pls don't expect it.
3. We wanted to use the hot tub but although clear it was a lot of dirt and sand at the bottom so we opted out of the feature.
4. The ceilings were stained and the the paint is peeling.
5. If you like to sleep in past 6:30 am expect to to hear kids above you doing what kids do.
I met him and his kids and I think they are lovely just not at 6:30am.
That being said, it's spacious inside and out for a larger groups, it's in walking distance to nice food and beverage places... check out Mary Ellen's for yummy breakfast.
It's well stocked with pots and pans if you like to cook and the beds were comfy.
I'm hoping this was a constructive review and Eric will make the improvements to make this house a true money maker.
