Disappointing
What was great: the fireplace, the spaciousness, the many windows, the area is beautiful, and being literally steps from the lake.
What wasn’t: a bit too many things, unfortunately. Walking in, the place smelled of mold. All the curtains were drawn so it was dark and not welcoming. There were signs everywhere about what not to do. There’s a ring of dirt around the entire perimeter of the kitchen floor. There was a rushing noise behind the basement door so we were too weirded out to open it. There’s a ground wire sticking out of an outlet, wrapped around a faceplate screw. The oak floors, albeit beautiful, were filthy. Doors stick and don’t shut well. There’s an 8 foot long crack in the ceiling at a structural point. The bathroom was unpleasant. While the sink and toilet appeared clean, the floor around the toilet was gross and the vinyl made the whole room feel dirty. The shower grout, the falling-apart caulk, and dirty shower liner were all moldy, the in-wall soap dish rusted, and a shower wall is bowing in which is very bad. My husband refused to shower there. We weren’t comfortable, wondering what else might be icky.
The laminated cards with area and check out info fell behind the kitchen cabinets so I couldn’t be sure I got everything done. Considering the painfully high cleaning fees alone were more than the rate of our two nights’ stay, I can’t say I feel bad if I did miss anything as we paid a lot for cleaning and the place was already dirty.
