There are pros and cons to this property. It is a charming home with very comfortable beds and is conveniently located near downtown Columbus. However, the location doesn’t feel particularly safe which sadly cannot be helped.
We had pretty extensive issues with the doors and locks, including getting locked inside the house when we checked in. The doors had issues sticking, but the deadbolts on the smart locks often would not turn. Thankfully, when we had these issues, Steve was very responsive and gave tips on how to fix the problem.
In the house itself, there were several small annoyances that would’ve made our stay more comfortable had they been resolved. There were only 3 wash clothes in the entire house (which is supposed to sleep up to 8) and most of the spare towels were dusty or had holes. The lightbulbs in the overhead light and lamp in one of the bedrooms were burned out. Steve directed me to find a spare in the basement, but I couldn’t find anything since the basement was very messy. There were only a couple of rolls of TP in the house and none to be found in the cabinet marked to have extras. (We didn’t discover there were no extras until it was too late one night to run out to get more. Not exactly convenient!)
It seemed like the cleaning service had just missed some steps like unloading the dishwasher from previous guests or clearing odds and ends (including alcohol) out of the fridge.
Sadly, while Steve was very helpful and kind, our experience overall was not a positive one. At the price point, it would’ve been worth it to stay in a hotel.
