The house was gorgeous, spacious, clean, and the look matched the pictures. The communication was also excellent and timely during our stay.
With that said there were a few things I would caution renters on:
- No ice maker or even an ice mold
- Extremely hard water, couldn't even run a comb through our hair after shower
- Beds were extremely uncomfortable and felt cheap/sunken in
- No extra sheets, pillowcases, or blankets, very minimal towel back-up (each girl had one towel to use the entire time)
- AC was not working for several hours when we arrived
- No flashlights, candles, or anything to use in an emergency
Last thing to note:
They charged me $80 to replace all of their towels for some small makeup stains that they stated were 'severe'. I asked for the photos as I knew our group was very respectful and the images were no more than what you'd expect when each female had ONE towel to use for the entire duration of our stay (3 days). When I asked if the photos were 'before' or 'after' they stated they were the 'before'. I then asked for the 'after' photos since the stains were so minor there is no way a regular washing machine and some Oxy clean wouldn't have gotten that out. They then responded by saying 'we messed up those are actually the 'after' photos (very suspect). They also told me they send the towels out for special cleaning and if the stains don't come out they charge the guests. The thing that didn't add up is that the images showed the towels laying on top of the washing machine inside the home. After a few rounds of back and forth questions that didn't add up they deleted all the photos and the image of the receipt which I'm still unable to see. They told me they were actually giving me a deal because I only had to pay for half of the cost for the towels which was actually $160 (very expensive for a few low quality white hand towels and 2 large towels).
Overall I felt the home was quite expensive for the quality. It felt like a pretty shell with a hollow inside which was a bit of a bummer but we had fun regardless and the location was great!
