Liked: Cleanliness, location, listing accuracy
Disliked: Check-in, communication
Unfortunately, the communication with the property owner was very disappointing. He did not return our phone calls or emails, and we were not provided with the instructions needed to access the property until after eight pm. We had to contact VRBO around for assistance. They couldn't even reach him or help us. I did say we would be checking in late, but never had zero communication like this before. The VRBO reps couldn't even get a hold of him.Given the significant delay and inconvenience, I felt some compensation would have been appropriate. Unfortunately, that request was also ignored. Overall, the property was great, but the lack of communication and delayed access made the experience very frustrating.
