The house is a little tucked away from everything, and provides all of the amenities you may need for some time away. Couldn't be more happy with this home as a place to get away. ##### Christian B.

Our only complaint was the mattress. Most of them need to be replaced. The good: Very clean, professional hosting, great amenities, AC worked great. ##### Brian S. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Selamawit W. Jul 24, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Spacious and peaceful place Our group of 10 adults and 12 kids enjoyed our stay at the Gentle Villa so much. The hosts are very cooperative, kind and accommodating. And the house it is very spacious and cozy. The air hockey table, the table pool, the swimming pool and the jacuzzi were all great. There are also many card games. You can reconnect and have fun all with out the need to leave the house. So this place is great for a restful vacation or reunion. we would really recommend it to others. A couple of things I would say needs attention from the hosts is the rest room in the downstairs bedroom and mattress boxes on top bunk beds. The drainage is not good. And even though there is a plunger provided, that was not enough. We had to stop using it at all. Some of the bunk beds have mattress boxes on the top beds. We thought it was not safe to let kids sleep on those beds because the mattresses are raised above the guard rails. All in all we are very happy with our stay. We didn’t have any issues that we were not able to manage. ##### Selamawit W. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### ashlyne c. Oct 24, 2023 Liked: Check-in, communication, listing accuracy Disliked: Cleanliness, location #### Wedding Reception For what we needed the house to hold it was accommodating but unfortunately the house was very dirty and it didn’t seem like they were prepared for us to stay there several lights were out and we had to get on the ladder ourselves to fix them because it was easier to do that then to reach out and get the obvious fixed that I feel should have been checked before hand There were a lot of roaches everywhere dead and alive and the fans on the ceiling were covered in the thick dust the rooms are very hot and the beds are very old and a few of the banister‘s alongside the stairs are very rickety and are almost falling off of the hinges The outside area was spacious and we were able to set up most of our stuff outside, we were told on our initial visit months ago that the people next to us were squatters and that they would get that taken care of before we came for our wedding party unfortunately I don’t think that happened as there were several people biking and walking by to our neighbors house and suspicious activity was overheard be prepared as the downstairs area is very cold and there are no blankets I would advise you to bring your own a lot of the surfaces are grimy and could use a deep cleaning the kitchen was stocked with several pans but I would advise you to Bring any spices or even cooking oil with you as that is not provided or at least made aware of that it is still good to use. ##### ashlyne c.

Jul 5, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great place for large groups We had a friends reunion with 12 adults and 16 kids. We had an absolutely fabulous time. There was more than enough to do in the house and on the grounds. We really appreciated having enough beds and eating space for everyone. Unlike most large rentals there were tons of bedrooms and everyone got a twin. We will definitely stay here again in the future. We thoroughly enjoyed having the space to spread out and the amenities were great. A few notes when deciding to stay here: 1. Almost all bedrooms are upstairs and the stairs are fairly steep. It wasn’t a problem for us. It was awesome for having separate spaces and blocking sound but not so great if you’re planning to bring grandma. 2. The internet is really spotty. Great if you’re just looking to relax but definitely not reliable enough for working remotely. 3. Some of the beds do not have true spring mattresses. It didn’t bother most of us, but definitely check your bed before agreeing to your bedroom if having a futon style cushion won’t work for you. A huge thank you to the hosts. We had an amazing time!! ##### Kelly S. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kris C.

Kitchen had plenty of pots and pans to use. The home needed to have a good cleaning. Meaning , dead bugs on floor in downstairs bedroom. Showers needed a good cleaning. Used coffee filter left in coffee pot, and it needed a good dusting. Ceiling fans dirty, plants very dusty. Other than needing a good cleaning it was wonderful. ##### Faith G.
