I rated this good ##### Bekka M. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Alyssia 3 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Communication, listing accuracy #### Wouldn’t recommend Unfortunately, our experience with this property fell below expectations. Prior to arrival, the host's communication was unusually probing, which created a sense of unease despite the reservation being fully paid in advance.Upon arrival, we found that the property felt significantly smaller than portrayed in the listing photos. Additionally, there were several visible cracks in the flooring that detracted from the overall comfort of the space.While the location may suit some travelers, we found these issues impacted the quality of our stay. Transparency and a more welcoming approach would go a long way in improving the guest experience. ##### Alyssia Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Kassandra H. 5 Aug 2025 Liked: Check-in, location Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, listing accuracy Expected better with description on listing. Stairs to rooms are on the outside, therefore one room is upstairs, and another downstairs no access from inside of no light in backyard. Cleanliness was 3/10 . Roaches in kitchen, 4 of 8 woke up with bug bites. Flooring was cracked, not leveled. Broken remote to living room tv. Stair lights not working, only 1 porch light was working. ##### Kassandra H.
