Disliked: Cleanliness
Would Avoid Renting
While we were excited for our stay, our experience was abysmal.The house was not properly cleaned. There was visible dust buildup on baseboards, blinds, and in room corners. The upstairs carpets had crusted stains, and the edges of rooms were full of dust and debris. Food crumbs were left near a bed, and the washing machine had mold in it. The vacuum in the house didn’t work, making it impossible to clean up the mess ourselves.The house was also poorly stocked. There was one paper towel roll, no extra garbage bags, minimal shampoo (only one bathroom had it), and missing hand soap. We also found personal items from past guests, including a used deodorant and sock. Worst of all, while putting our toddlers to bed, we found an unfinished bottle of Fireball Whiskey and loose batteries in their nightstand.The host, Ben, blamed “unfortunate timing” due to a long-term renter leaving that morning and didn’t have time to adequately restock and clean the house. When we told Ben about the whiskey, his response was, “Glad it was almost empty!”—a shocking lack of concern. Ben did have cleaners come but we then had to juggle the kid’s nap schedules with them, and they were not given clear instructions on what to clean and we had to direct them using a translation app.The listing claims the home is “family-friendly,” but it is far from it. Given the state of the home, it felt more like a frat house—except we paid over 2K to stay there. I would not recommend this rental.
