Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy
The description of this place is deceptive. This place is old. An arcade room was only a room of board games. Disappointed in the smell of the home and poor quality of furniture. The dining table and chairs were terrible. Sticky table and chairs that the cushions absolutely needed replaced. Across the street was a school that had playground equipment that would have been helpful if you had small children. Finally, bring your own Kleenex and napkins as that is not provided.

Response from VrboOwner on Jul 24, 2026
Thank you for your feedback, Tablecloths, napkins, and Kleenex have been restocked. Additionally, the dining chairs have been replaced, and the arcade listing has been removed, as ae were not aware that was marked on the listing
