I arrived, after driving from Freeport, ME in the driving rain! Thank goodness my grandson, daughter in law and dog decided, due to weather, to drive to Keene very early the next day. I follow, Melanie, the owner’s instructions to enter property. 2 very large , protective dogs come barking/ bounding at the door. A man comes up, I say I’m Vrbo guest for next 2 weeks. He gets his wife, she tells me Melanie!!!, has rented it to them, long term as of a month ago. Melanie never bothered to cancel with VRBO or me. I’m from out of town, never been to NH, my daughter in law had a certificate course she had to take. I’m overwhelmed, the people, Melanie, rented too ( I’m a very non threatening Gramma) told me I needed to leave the property ( even though I showed them my reservation), when I didn’t move quickly enough, her husband came out and honked the horn. By this point, we’d call Melanie, and no surprise, she didn’t answer her phone, I drove to some parking lot and called VRBO. After getting disconnected several times, I spoke with Diego and the Yvonne. They were wonderful, which was great after being treated so rudely by the long term renters, who’d signed up long after I’d signed up and paid. Melanie is TOTALLY untrustworthy, I would strongly recommend not renting from her, and to the long term renters, I’d be wary, Melanie doesn’t seem to think contracts, agreements, etc, include her!
Fortunately, I got rooms at the Courtyard by Marriott downtown, and they were very pleasant!
