This listing, at first glance, is gorgeous. The exposed brick and living room decor is really rather attractive. However, when you start looking at the details you realize that there isn’t much attention to detail (dirty, dusty drawers and shelves, trash bags and paper products thrown about in random cabinets, missing door knobs, no broom/dustpan, peeling paint etc.). Still all that would have have been perfectly excusable if THE HEAT WORKED!
We arrived and it was 20 degrees outside, and 67 degrees inside. After adjusting the thermostat to 82 degrees (to account for the drafty windows and cold air blowing under the doors) after 8 hours, the temperature inside only got to 71 degrees. We tried everything: checked floor vents, checked for open windows, messaged the host, but even after cranking the dial in the bedroom to 90, did we manage to get the temp to 76 degrees inside. And it would plummet to the 60s if the dial was adjusted.
It got so cold that I dressed my service dog in layers and bundled under the covers for the first full day of our stay because the heat simply wasn’t working. And there were no extra blankets, towels, nothing. We looked!
When I expressed the above to the host, we were told “Well, 74 is a good temperature.” Really? So all in all, lovely place from afar, needs attention to detail, and an HVAC technician…or visit in the summer. Good luck.
