### 8/10 Good

#### Beautiful spacious home with fenced yard for our 2 labradoodles
We needed a home to stay in while the repairs on our home due to flooding were repaired. The home is very spacious and open with a great floorplan. We didn't spend much time in the home during the day as we had our normal activities that we did each day. The fenced back yard was perfect for our dogs. The home is beautifully decorated.The reason for 4 stars instead of 5 was that I found the home not very clean by my standards. It is a beautiful property and a great place for a large family. The laundry room, including the washer, the glass stove top and floors really need to be cleaned. There were only 3 juice glasses and a few tall glasses. I would provide more juice size glasses. The contact person, Summer, was always available by phone. She was very helpful. Evolve is a great company to deal with.

Liked: Cleanliness, location
Disliked: Check-in, listing accuracy
It started at check in. They gave a 6 digit code. Lock would only take 4\. I tried every option nothing. Contacted support over seas and they did not know. Had to contact local support and she game be hers to use. OK, we are in. Then we started looking around. The beds has to be the cheapest beds you can buy. It was like sleeping in a taco. Feet and head in the air. If you love super soft beds you are set. Then the bunk beds were very thin and you could feel the bars in your ribs. The wifi would not work at all. The owner of the house tried to contact support but I was out of the house at the time. Ended up no wifi or TV for 2 of the 3 days. I was finally abel to get it reconnected for the last day. Other than that, the house is ok to stay in. I won't be staying again, but it was a place to stay. Ended up sleeping in the chairs the last night. Just be aware.
