I'm torn about how many stars to give this house. The location, decor, communication, and attempts at problem resolution were excellent, but we experienced several pretty big issues.1) We had no hot water. This was NOT the fault of the property/host; a major rainstorm occurred before we arrived in the late afternoon, and apparently the storm caused an electrical outage that blew out the hot water heater control board. Once the property manager understood there was a problem, she immediately arranged for a handyman to come the next morning and check it out. Unfortunately, though, the problem was not going to be fixed before we left. We were offered a discount for this inconvenience, which seemed appropriate.2) After dark, the one bathroom and both downstairs bedrooms were swarmed with flying ants. These did not seem to sting and did settle down after we turned off the lights and went to bed, but it was very disconcerting.3) The countertop ice maker (which is the only ice source) had some mildew around the inside edges, and the scoop inside of it had large dark splotches of something that looked like mildew or stains. Also, the previous renters had left old food in the freezer, which the housekeeper didn't throw away.The interior decor is very cute, and at first glance everything seemed just as advertised and well maintained. However, the ants, mildew, and old food gave us pause and made us wonder if there were other maintenance issues that weren't obvious.
