We stayed at this Airbnb for several days, and it was clear that the hosts put a lot of love and effort into the property. The home itself has a fascinating history, and the décor added a unique and memorable touch to our stay. It was well-stocked with fun board games, plenty of streaming services on the TV, and the private pool outside was definitely a highlight. The hosts also provided pool towels and floats, which we really appreciated. That said, there were a few things that fell short. During the day, we noticed quite a few cobwebs in the bathroom, which made it feel like it hadn’t been cleaned recently or possibly hadn’t been used in a while. The large bathtub, while beautiful, was extremely slippery to get out of and lacked any safety railing. One of our biggest disappointments was the listing’s mention of a hot tub, which was actually a “conversation pool” with no heat. The hot tub was a major reason we chose this property, and had we known it wasn’t available, we likely would have booked elsewhere. The location was conveniently close to downtown, which was a plus. However, the neighboring house had a VERY strong odor of cat urine, and the outdoor trashcan was full of maggots-both of which were hard to overlook. Despite these issues, the host was incredibly sweet, responsive, and accommodating. They provided plenty of thoughtful amenities, and we could tell they genuinely care about their guests’ experience. I just want to give a full and honest picture of our stay.
