Overall we were happy with our stay. The hosts were excellent, friendly communicators who responded quickly to questions. The home was clean, the beds and bedding were very comfortable, lots of nice bath towels were provided, the living room couch was large and comfortable to fit us all, and we appreciated there were things like toilet paper, hand soap, and dish soap available upon arrival. Overall it was way better than staying in a hotel as a family.Downsides: The description boasts the location, and while there was a shopping center and a public park with a lake very close by, the area in general was extremely rundown with lots of shutdown businesses, construction, and unhoused people. The area didn't feel safe or nice for walking around. The home is only accessible from one side of a busy road, so it wasn't easy to get to. Disappointing aspects inside the home included: only one smart TV in the living room, the TV in one of the bedrooms didn't work at all, remotes didn't have batteries, lighting throughout was awful (many lamps didn't work, lights that did work were fluorescent, the stove light included two exposed hanging bulbs); there were zero food storage options in the kitchen (no Tupperware, plastic wrap, aluminum foil, or ziplock bags); there was one butter knife; and it was difficult to be quiet when others were sleeping due to creaky floorboards, doors, and doorknobs. Perhaps the fact that the house is listed for sale is a factor in the lack of upkeep.
