Lots of little things added up to a not-so-perfect stay.
Upon arrival, the house smelled very musty, so we opened up windows to air it out. The days were chilly and rainy, and we discovered the heat was not working. The property mgmt. company sent out a maintenance person who found the heating unit had been completely disassembled and he could not fix it. The mgmt. company told us to use space heaters and they would be in touch. However, no one followed up until I touched base the following evening. They told us they had not been able to reach the owners and could not do anything to fix the heat.
In addition, there was some kind of rodent active all night either in the walls or on the roof of the main floor bedroom (squirrel? mouse?), which made for very uneasy sleeping. There was no evidence of it in the house, but the scratching and shuffling were persistent all three nights we were there.
Add to that some dirty items in the kitchen (the coffeepot being the worst), and it just made for a not ideal stay.
The property could be a nice one, but it requires a lot more maintenance and upkeep than what it has been given so far.
