Our family traveled from the west coast to spend time together in Washington DC while my husband played in a golf tournament. The house was perfect. Everyone had room. The house was so clean and comfortable.
Initially I was impressed until I arrived at the property. I informed the owner we would be having dinner outside so we had tables and chairs delivered. I was given Soooo many rules about who could come where they needed to park and NO ONE could sleep over. Last time I checked I rented the whole house for 48 hours. I am an excellently rated house guest this is my 12th rental. Never have I been given such specific demands for having a dinner. The checkout day they were coming to get the table and chairs and she gave me the hardest time. The were picked up before noon and next guests were not coming until 4. The chairs were OUTSIDE! She threatened to “dispose” of them if I didn’t have someone come. I Told her they were on their way. I told her she was the worst host I have ever encountered. It’s a shame the house is nice! We left it in immaculate condition. Just not worth the price and the headache!! Look elsewhere
