We travel frequently and have stayed at homes via VRBO and the similar services numerous times. We sometimes opted for hotels with "almost full kitchen" (no oven) when the (VRBO/similar services home) prices and conditions weren't good, or availability became very limited. With this home, I was very impressed with this home in terms of cleanliness (especially with shoes off policy, which I loved!), location, and kitchen was well-supplied (no gross scratched pans and pots, yay!) The hostess provided adequate dishwashing soap, new sponge, dish washer soap, paper towels, and toilet papers. This is definitely on my favorite list. Excellent hostess communication! I always appreciate communicating directly with hostess, who owns their home, not contracted through some management services with cookie cutter responses. Thank you, Jennifer, for providing such clean and warm home!
