This is a listing for a house that operates as a hostel. You do get the full house to yourselves, but the hostel element remains. I do not believe this listing accurately represents this at all. This detail is grossly omitted . Had we known, we would never have booked this. The day you check in they send you 9 different keycode combinations for the 9 different rooms. Each room, including bathrooms and showers, has its own keycode for key access which then had an automatic lock feature which requires a key to open at all times, which makes it a nightmare for kids. We had 8 kids with us and this auto-lock feature was a disaster. We had issues getting the front door to lock because it only provides an auto-lock feature and that was not working. The front door cannot be deadbolted shut because, again, this house typically operates as a hostel and each guest would typically need to have access to the main areas. We couldn't figure out how to lock the back door either and we could not get the wifi to work if more than a handful of people were on it at any one time. During our stay, we had people lingering on the street outside the house who asked us if there were any spare rooms available that they could possibly sleep in for the night. This went over fantastic with the 6 families I brought to stay here. Overall a poor experience and I am very disappointed that this kind of listing is allowed on VRBO without the proper disclosures. Not ideal for families.
