We had a great stay. The check in process was easy, the host was extremely responsive, and we had more than enough room for everyone. We had a little trouble with the air conditioner at the one house but overall it was a great experience!

8/10 Good

Rita C.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location
The place looked beautiful upon arrival. However, there was one hanger per closet ( most were wire dry cleaner hangers). The facilities and accoutrements were sparse and the couches very uncomfortable ( both needed replacements). The towels were mismatched and insufficient in quantity ( needed to request more than the leas than one provided per guest). We were there for a formal family wedding and felt like the preparation of the space was for a sorority overnight. Little attention to detail ( the iron, while functional, was broken physically.)That said, the management was responsive and friendly. I would stay againThe location was great and like I said, hosts were responsive.

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Disliked: Cleanliness
The location was great but that is where the positives end. The bedrooms are TINY. If you think you’ll be able to fit a pack n play anywhere other than the master, you’re mistaken. There wasn’t a drop of hand soap anywhere in the house. The towels were a mismatch of basic rags to something with substance. The second house had bugs…multiple guests staying there were bit by an unknown species. The “rug“ is a match of individual tiles on concrete floor that slide constantly because there is no anti-slip mat underneath them. The pillows were like air and the sheets felt like plastic. We spent nearly 4k for 5 nights…if I’m paying an arm and a leg to stay somewhere, I expect it to be comfortable, not feel like a corporate money making venture with cut corners.
