The air conditioning wouldn’t go below 77 degrees in the downstairs; upstairs didn’t have a thermostat but temp was at least 15 degrees hotter. Unbearable heat. Host did not respond to texts about AC until I called , then she texted me back to say it hadn’t been working well but she usually kept it at 74 which she thought was comfortable. She said she was sorry we weren’t happy with that and sent a sad face! Also when we arrived she was at the property she informed me she lives there, which I was unaware of. It was very awkward having her in the house, even with a separate entrance knowing she could access the house at any time while our property was there.
One of the “perks” offered was a keurig with coffee available. There were 3 pods of peppermint coffee only available. She said there was some coffee in the cupboard if we wanted to fill pods for other coffee. She said there was none of the other things usually available as she hadn’t had time to go shopping to have anything available. Also money was tight so she hasn’t purchased anything.
Rita was friendly but not a good host. House is over stuff with ornate decor but no comfortable furniture to sit in and spend time together and just visit. This would never be a place I would recommend or use again ever!! In all the VRBOs I’ve ever stayed in, I’ve never felt as uncomfortable or less at-home as I did here. Also, sharing the driveway and never knowing where or what side of the driveway you will have to park on, when I had my elder sister that has mobility issues getting to and from the house made it especially difficult. All in all it was a disappointing weekend from the housing aspect. I feel very ripped off and like I was mislead all the way!
