Sep 29, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Pet areas would be very satisfactory, but we would not allow an unattended child on back deck as the gate was missing. Host was very polite and thorough and we would stay there again. We let the host know that the cleaning service needs to up their game a little, small things like the bathroom floor needed more attention, stain on dining carpet, fridge smudged, makes the host look bad. ##### Darrell D.
