  Not like photos. Not clean, cobwebs, hair in the tub drain. Very dusty and a very strong musty smell. I would not use Vrbo again.

  Communication with host was good, but the place lacked necessities like a spatula, toaster or working broiler. Way too much furniture and dust.

  The property is run down and in need of repair. It was not accurately represented in its VRBO listing. It lacked basic and essential amenities, especially for a 6 bedroom / sleeping 10 listing. Water pressure was unbearably low. In the middle of my short shower, the water flow spontaneously reduced to a trickle. After 1-2 mins of this, the water flow returned to its previous stronger but weakened state along with a loud screeching sound from the pipes which lasted 3-4 mins. The beds are uncomfortable, the mattresses are mushy & sagging and appear as to be as old as the house. No A/C and windows painted shut and those that open have worn and dirty screens. We were so uncomfortable and inconvenienced by the property that we checked out early and got a hotel room for our final night. Such an awful experience! Shocking that VRBO would have such a poor quality listing on its site. I request a refund.

  Hi Michael, we take it seriously when guests let us know we missed the mark, and after sharing your feedback with the homeowner, they’d like to mention:
  
  - All mattresses were replaced last year and are medium-firm, though comfort preferences vary.
  - While previous guests haven't mentioned water pressure issues, we've scheduled a plumber to inspect and resolve any problems promptly.
  - The property underwent a full interior renovation last year, but we'll reassess areas needing attention or repairs.
  - This home doesn't have A/C (as noted in our listing), but we’ll inspect windows and screens to improve ventilation and comfort.
  Thanks for your valuable feedback!
