6/10 Okay

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy
Disliked: Communication
Initial communication was poor, we were panicked that our stay was not correctly booked. Code finally came to inbox after calling VRBO hotline. Back porch lights not on at arrival and some lights inside were missing or out. Key panel was slow to accept code but worked finally when I learned trick to hold handle and pull during lock and unlock. Refrigerator was not working when we checked in and we did not feel safe purchasing groceries and perishables. This led host to issue a credit which was appreciated. It did not really finally make up for all the small issues, and I’d note that some people may not have found these issues as frustrating as we did. The upstairs shower did not have a correct length shower curtain so I opted to use the other which worked better. The soap dispensers and shampoo dispensers were all jammed which leads me to think previous guests took siphon tube out and dispensed soap this way (less than sanitary). There was no trash can in the downstairs bathroom. There was a load of wet laundry which we discovered on our last day, and it seems the dryer was clogged or not properly vented (also a safety hazard). In the end, the house is large and relatively comfortable and well located. It was more quiet than I expected and felt very safe. Many details have been missed or felt very lacking. The kitchen and cabinets (dishwasher) are poorly assembled and there was only one dish towel which had to do triple duty as a drying rack, hot pad, etc.

Liked: Location
Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in
What a nightmare stay!! I don't even know where to begin with them. The place was so dusty that you could see my footprints left behind. Like footprints in snow. As soon as I pulled in the outdoor trash bins were COMPLETELY FULL and overflowing! There was even garbage littered around and with evidence of being rained on and dried out multiple times (during the drought!) When I notified the host, they asked me to take out the garbage for them! And then they kept insisting for me to take it out for them afterwards. This was after the fact they charged me for a bogus charge on the day of check-in. Their page has no limitations on pets and says in the caption "pets free". On the morning of check-in I was sent a contract stating only dogs were allowed and I would be charged extra/pet. I showed the host screen shots of their page and they didn't care. I didn't have time to make new arrangements since they didn't respond to me until evening so I paid them and checked into the property exhausted and ready for a shower. I went to the bathroom and unfolded the bathmat and a large DRIED OUT cockroach fell out. It has been dead and living there for a while. Cherry on top, not only was I not able to sleep due to the constant coughing and throat irritation, the first night, I broke out in a rash all over my face. I thought I was getting ill or maybe got exposed to something, but the next day all day I didn't cough at all...until the following night in the VRBO! And my face had even more!
