Mar 3, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Good but room for improvement Back door security could be better. Most bedroom windows could not be opened which meant little ventilation on hot days. Heat pump cooled lounge area only. Heavy decor beam above bed not very secure. Lots of neighbors. Otherwise good. Nice and central ##### Andrew & Suze W. Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Victoria N. Feb 25, 2025 Liked: Check-in, location, listing accuracy #### Just Okay This property was fine for a one night stay, but I would recommend finding somewhere better. The big draw for us was the hot tub/spa. But it was so dirty and the scum line was so thick that no one felt comfortable getting in. Additionally, the bathroom where the shower is was full of bugs and literal plants growing from the outside of the house in. Furthermore, we indicated that there would be 6 people on our reservation but there were only 4 towels provided. There was also not enough bedding for the uncomfortable pullout. The messaging with whoever manages the property was inconsistent and inconsiderate. ##### Victoria N. Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Thilo D.
