Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Coenraad V. 8 Feb 2024 Liked: Check-in, communication, location Disliked: Cleanliness #### Old House First impressions were good. However, as soon as you settle in, you notice a lot of dust, dirt and grime. There were Christmas decorations still under the couch and a ball under the bed in the main bedroom. The shelves were only partially wiped and full of dust otherwise. The coffee pods from previous visitors were still in the Nespresso machine. The freezer still has food in it, not sure how long it has been there for. The carpet area under the beds and couches were full of dust. These areas have not been cleaned for a very long time. The toy basket and the vase was used by previous guests as a dustbin, and these were never checked and emptied. ##### Coenraad V.

Everything was nice, although the ensuite bathroom was a bit small. There was some stuff missing (garbage bags for example) but quickly remedied by the host and a visit to the grocery store. The back deck was great. ##### Leah M.

We really enjoyed our stay. Close to the Redwoods for our bike riding and room to store the bikes. We did have to park one of our vehicles close to the garage door to make sure it was secure as one door didn't lock. Be good to have that fixed for anyone wanting to store their bikes. Otherwise certainly recommend this holiday home. ##### Sara K.
