Verified review

6/10 Okay

Liked: Check-in, location
Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, listing accuracy
Even though the inside is dated and parts definitely need some work done, the biggest disappointment and aggravation was how unclean it was. There was hair everywhere, on the bedding (in all rooms), and in the showers. Stains all on the carpets and cloth furniture. This made it uncomfortable for us to fully enjoy this rental. Pulling back the sheets on the bed, we found dirt, sand and more hair. We arrived a little early to possibly check in but the cleaning crew had not yet been there. Hopefully, in the future, they can take more time and care in making this house worth what it rents for.
