10/10 Excellent

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
We really enjoyed our stay! The location was perfect—close enough to downtown that getting there was quick and easy, but far enough away that it felt peaceful and secluded. Nestled in the hills, the house offered a quiet escape from the city lights, making it a relaxing place to unwind after a day of exploring. The house itself was on the smaller side, but it was clean, comfortable, and the perfect size for our family of three. We would definitely stay here again!

The owner charges 30 to check-in early and 30 for late check-out. We were supposed to be able to check-in at 4:00. At 4:11 we still didn't have instructions to check-in. I called the host and they apologized for her error. I asked for a 30 credit since she charges for early check-in and 30 for late check-out. She refused.The house is not as depicted. It is really worn down inside, the carpet has to be 15 yrs old or older. The walls were dirty, the bathrooms had mold, honestly it felt like my college apartment 25 yrs ago. The yard looks like no one has done anything to it is years. The AC's can't keep up with the heat. The only good thing about our stay was the location.
