Do not stay here. If you don't have time to read this entire review, just take this away: don't stay here. If it's the only vacation rental available, opt for a hotel. We booked for 2 nights and left after 1, and the only reason we stayed the 1 night is because it was after 10:30 p.m. and I have young kids, and we just couldn't go somewhere else that late.
I booked this place because we took a road trip on a bit of a whim, and it was the only one left. Foolishly, I decided to overlook the previous horrible reviews and give it a chance. HEED THE REVIEWS!
The owner would not give me any kind of refund despite all the problems - in fact, the owner never returned any of my communication following our 1 night. So I am out a good chunk of $$$ for a 2 night booking in a place that should not exist as a vacation rental. You should be able to tell from the other reviews that the owner is not interested in actual hospitality.
Here is just a short list of some issues:
1. It smells bad. Like, unbearably bad. I suspect this is due to the couches, which leads me to
2. The couches are disgusting. I am not a germaphobe/neat freak, but I wouldn't let my kids sit on any of the couches. They look like they were snatched up from a hotel from the 80's that allowed smoking that gave them away for free.
3. The only bedding provided for the bunk beds was a flat sheet and a dirty comforter. No top sheet or blankets.
4. The balusters (the vertical posts on the stair rail) on the stairs are wide enough apart that I could (and did) climb through them myself. Did not notice this until my 1 year old was sitting on the top step with his body hanging through.
5. The bottom horizontal deck rail on both the balcony and the lower deck is also wide enough that I could (and did) climb through it.
6. Too many broken things to list - nowhere to hang even 1 towel or toilet paper roll, both bathroom fans broken, nightstand broken, more.
7. The place was just not clean. It had obviously been cleaned, and the linens were clean (minus the comforters, which have likely never been cleaned since they were rescued from that same 80's motel), but the rest was cleaned to a standard of someone who has never learned how to properly clean. Including mildew, soap scum, hair and dirty in the shower; every single glass/mirror surface; night stand; walls; more.
Do yourself a favor and just don't stay here.
