I knew that this property was risky for me as it was pretty far out of town (I needed to be near Baylor), but the hostess was gracious to allow me an early check-in. That being said, I have NEVER had such a time trying to get into a VRBO before. I was given a code, but that code did not work. I stood outside in the 100 degree weather trying to get in but to no avail. I reached out to the hostess, but it took her 30 minutes to get back to me. Then she proceeded to give me another code that finally worked. So much for the early check in. While I was outside I was bit by fire ants; that was awful. Once inside I tried to turn on the TV and there was no remote in sight. Again, I had to reach out to the hostess to figure that one out. Seems the previous guest's kids put it in a basket in the bedroom. The hostess blamed this over site on the housekeeper. In my humble opinion, this is a non-negotiable; most of us need to relax in front of the Tv after a long day. That also means, the remote was not cleaned, so I wiped it down myself; details matter to me. I realize that things go wrong, but two humdingers out of the gate is wild. I will say, it was very nice to have ice in the freezer though! Would I go back to this place? No, and not just because of what happened there. I would not return because it is a little too "lived in" for my taste. I hope this does not happen to the next guests and that the housekeeper is a bit more aware during the next cleaning.
