Master shower knob didn’t work. We had to turn it on/off from above the shower head, difficult to do, hard to turn that little knob, and/or if you’re too short to reach it. Master bathtub was broken, could not use it.Washing machine was sketchy, it would stop during cycle and I had to restart it.2nd bathroom, the toilet wouldn’t flush unless you held down the handle down for a long period of time.2nd bathroom shower drain plate was popping off continuously.Upstairs for short people/kids, those details were not in the description.Pictures are deceiving.Floors/area rug carpets were dirty at check in, hair everywhere, I swept 3 times. Our first night there we were playing a board game on the area rug and random multiple hairs kept getting on the board.Food crumbs underneath the ottomans and throughout the 2nd living room area rug.Pile of mouse turds in the kitchen closet.Refrigerator was dirty. Looked like it hadn’t been wiped out in a long time.Master bedroom mattress cover stained.Backyard table and chairs were very dirty, green moldy and we weren’t able to utilize them. Need pressure washed in the worst way.Multiple piles of old dog poop in the back yard. Broken or weak furniture.The property owner/manager also attempted to send us a charge for damage that was already on the furniture.We left that property better than we found it.

It's a shame that someone does major damage to furniture in our home and then does not even report that fact to us. When we charged these renters for that damage, they decided to make a list of things they did not like about the house. We did not hear from them about any of their complaints until after they were charged for the damage that we know was certainly done by them. We carefully inspect the property after each renter leaves and we have an armoire that had a door ripped off its hinges and a major scratch in the dining room table. There were stains on the walls and carpets that took additional cleaning and even repainting. The mess left by dogs we know came from dogs they brought into the house, without our prior knowledge of course, in order to not pay the pet fee. Everything else they stated in their review was, at best, an exaggeration intended to make our home less attractive to future renters. We continue to take pride in our house and hope we can provide an enjoyable vacation experience for future guests.

This guest rated us low on cleanliness simply because the garbage container from a previous guest had not been picked up before their arrival due to a holiday. We feel this is an unfairly low rating for cleanliness based on this one occurrence. Our home is exceptionally clean.
