We rented during the 4 days around Elon U graduation. The best feature of the house is its location. In terms of the graduation ceremony, it was a mere 1.5 miles from the Schar Center (where graduation takes place). Easy walk of 30 minutes all on a wide sidewalk.
The house appeared to be clean and on first glance, I was happy with it.
The 4 rooms have full beds. Each of our family members had a room to themselves but realized that my room had no working lights and neither did my oldest son’s room.
I didn’t pay close attention at check-in to my youngest son’s room but later saw a ton of bits of trash, beads and other various items scattered around the perimeter of the room. I’m not sure it had actually been properly vacuumed in a really long time. The kitchen counter had some pretty old drips of food that hadn’t been cleaned up. I looked for wipes but couldn’t find anything appropriate to cleanse the counter.
There were a few cleaning instructions upon checkout:(dishes - though there was no dishwashing liquid to clean pans), taking out the trash and taking the bin to the street and to strip beds and start a load of wash.
During our stay I did receive a couple of emails from our host which I appreciated. But we were seriously so busy with graduation that I didn’t have a chance to respond. I’m torn about posting this mediocre review but I think hosts should know how they compare to other rentals and I owe it to other customers to give an accurate reporting.
