Great communication and home!

We really liked staying here! We had the AC give up on us the first night and it was fixed quickly and we were kept in the loop which was fantastic. The location is awesome, and the home and neighborhood are adorable. Check in and out were great, and my smalls loved the attic room. Thank you!

Very nice home and location was great. Home was also well stocked with all necessities. Great communication from host! Our only complaint and advisement for anyone who is considering staying here during hot weather is that 2 of the beds and one full bathroom is on the 3rd level of the home and it was very difficult to cool off this level. Depending on your ability to sleep in warm temperatures you may not be able to use that level. Please note when we stayed here it was 90 degrees in Dayton.

Our group of 9 fit nicely into this house. Be aware that the 2nd floor has 3 bedrooms and only one bathroom. The location of the property was very convenient to all of the local attractions, but it was a bit confusing getting to and from Cincinnati due to the crazy highway traffic patterns. Parking in back was difficult to maneuver, so we kept one car in the front and one car in the parking at the back of the house. There are no bedrooms on the main floor, so be sure everyone in your group can climb stairs. The property was clean, and the neighborhood felt safe. There were plenty of towels and the kitchen met our needs. The TV worked well for movies at night and had lots of options, including Netflix, Disney, YouTube, and Paramount. When we arrived, my young granddaughters exclaimed, "I love this place!" If you are looking for a relatively large house at a reasonable price in the Cincinnati area, and you are able to climb stairs, I highly recommend this location.

Disliked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Our experience was such a disappointing one. No where in the listing did it say there were no bedrooms or full baths on the main floor. One of the ladies was still recovering from knee surgery and could not navigate the very steep stairs. Since they were narrow we knew we couldn’t safely get her upstairs. We contacted the host and Vrbo, neither of which offered us any assistance after we ran into the issue with no main floor bedroom and bath I went back and looked over the listing again to see if there was indication of the problem this was for guests. I now see that several reviews have stated the stairs are an issue it is very sad that the host does not give an honest listing of the house. We couldn’t even stay in the house and ended up having to secure hotel rooms for our group of eight to stay in for two nights. We got no refund, no option for a different location and was still charged a cleaning fee!! Plus the added expense of hotel rooms Vrbo told me they were requesting the host to refund our money but we have not heard back from them. It was a very disheartening experience. What should have been a wonderful friends weekend together became a sad memory. We will Not go be a positive recommendation from our group of 8 ladies for the property hosts!!
Tread of stairs narrower than ADA requirement.
Very steep stairs to some sleeping areas
More steep steps to rest of sleeping area

A Great Location!

We didn't plan all of our activities in advance & found ourselves near everything we wanted & needed. It's also in a lovely neighborhood with old architecture that is fun to look at. The stairs in this house are quite steep with all bedrooms up 1 & 2 flights of steps. The floors upstairs creak quite loudly, especially at 3am when you're trying to use the restroom quietly. The main floor was great for a large group (we had 7 adults) and had a lovely time visiting with plenty of seats & room to sprawl out.
