I want to first start with the positives of staying at this location because they should not go unnoticed:
- The host was very friendly, super accessible and addressed most of our issues immediately. She made every attempt to make sure we had a great stay.
- The location was perfect for getting to popular bars, the lake and anything else you would want to do while in the Osage Beach area.
- The space was comfortable for a group of 8 to enjoy our stay.
However ….
The house did not seem like it had properly been prepped for guests to be arriving.
-When we arrived there was no toilet paper in any of the bathrooms (the host corrected this promptly)
- The floors were very dirty. They had been partially swept but there was food crumbs, confetti and other dirt left behind under the tables, chairs and couches. If you walked barefoot in the house your feet turned black.
- The shower in one of the bedrooms did not work and needed to be fixed. The host did address this quickly as well.
- There were left behind items under multiple beds that our group cleaned up. As well as poorly made beds (bed skirt wadded up under the beds, etc) when we arrived.
- One of our guests found food in the bed she was sleeping in that was not from our group and had been there from the time we arrived.
- It did rain a lot during our stay but the bedrooms on the lower level smelled very mildewy and the carpet felt almost damp during our entire stay. We dumped multiple buckets from the dehumidifier but this didn’t even put a dent in the humidity levels within the house.
No one ever wants to feel like the place they are staying at isn’t clean however that’s what our group got. This is not a “value” stay but the quality of what we experienced more aligned with a cheap hotel. The issues we had could be resolved for future guests by better housekeeping measures. Overall it was, okay at best.
