2/10 Terrible

Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy
When we arrived, there were dogs in kitchen, no key to the door and uncertain if we were the only guest. The owner either double booked or didn’t know we’re were coming. This caused us to have to find other accommodations at 9:00 PM and pay more for them. Jjstvreally horrible overall experience.
