I stayed at this property while I was In town for a work conference. There was an issue with booking the hotel, so three colleagues stayed with me. We are all working moms and looked forward to a rejuvenating weekend of sleep without toddler interruptions. Overall that was provided.
There were a few communication issues with the owner. I’d asked about different amenities and didn’t hear back. I was hoping to get some work done but wasn’t sure what to expect so no I’ll have to work more on Monday.
Also, I came straight from working an event in the rain all day and needed to shower at the VRBO before heading to the conference. Unfortunately, check in was delayed because I didn't get the code to the house and I had to go to the conference in dirty jeans and muddy boots. Kind of a bummer.
The interior was not spotless. The floors had a lot of dust bunnies like it’d been empty for a while. The toilets were left mid-clean like they had started them but forgot to finish, so they were streaked with blue cleaner but not wiped down. The best part was the half-eaten hot dog on the table under the lazy Susan. I moved the board to clean a spill and almost passed out because I thought it was a finger. Which leads to my next point…
I think this has been recently renovated because it’s gorgeous, but there were some minor things that were a little inconvenient and unnoticed unless you actually stayed at the home.
There are no blinds on the public space windows which was a little creepy so my friend said “It feels like there could be a murderer watching right now.” (Leading to spill and subsequent hot dog discovery).
The bedrooms were luxurious but didn’t have curtains, which felt unfinished to me. The lack of curtains weren’t problematic until I laid down to sleep but the position of the bed lined up with street lights perfectly. Curtains would have made the stay more comfortable.
The shower door in the main bedroom doesn’t stay shut while the shower is running, so you have to hold it closed.
The shower door in the back bedroom, the door opens the wrong side (toward the spray). So don’t try to warm the water or you’ll get a very wet floor and drenched clothes.
We didn't try to use tv or wifi. We didn’t try to cook or anything. Literally just slept and showered there. A gorgeous home, but owners should stay overnight to address all the inconveniences.
