Upon arrival, we were a little concerned about the neighborhood upon first impression. It ended up being a very quiet neighborhood and we had no issues. Yes, the home nextdoor is a bit run down, but there’s not much the owner can do about that. The drive to and from the airport was quick and easy. The owner is responsive and quick to take care of any issues. He’s done a great job at ensuring the home is well equipped and clean. A few downfalls:
The knob to select bath or shower in the master needs to be replaced. It was missing and when I reached out to the owner he was aware of this.
When you recline in the very comfortable sofas, you get a whiff of what smells like weed really bad.
Halfway into our trip the water heater stopped working. We all needed to shower in the evening; however, could not due to the lack of hot water.
Additionally, the dryer would not dry our clothes. I cleaned the inside lint trap; however, it was more so due to a clogged duct from the outside of the home.
The owner was apologetic and quickly sent somebody over in the morning to repair the issues. It was just an inconvenience especially with having kids.
The location wasn’t t very ideal for a family as there wasn’t much to do; however, it served its purpose.
Again, I believe the owner has put a great amount of time, money, and energy into the property there’s just a few maintenance items that should be handled to ensure future renters do not have any issues.
