Solid Place to Stay but there is room for improvement

I booked this listing for a group of friends who traveling through the area to visit the Treehouse Brewery that is 10 minutes away. We wanted a place to relax, enjoy some good food, and take in the area. The house is really charming for an older house. You can tell there has been quite a bit of work done to renovate and that really comes through. However, I found some of the details lacking. You can tell that the cleaning crew that looks after the house missed quite a bit. - Chairs in the kitchen had loose legs - nothing broken but just needed to be tightened and reupholstered - Dishes were dirty and still had bits of food stuck on them - Pool wasn't clean ... its not quite pool season but it didn't look too nice, should at least have a cover - The pool table is a mini-pool table and not a regulation one - photograph makes it look bigger than it is - Some of the vents needed to be cleaned as there was dust build-up - TV remote was sticky and was tough to use - Garage door needs to be fixed and didn't open cleanly when we tried to open it - kept getting caught on some metal wires by the door - Lightbulbs in the kitchen were burnt out and needed to be replaced - Kitchen cabinet doors need to be tightened and realigned - Water dispenser in the fridge is sticky and didn't stop causing water to overflow - needs to be cleaned/tightened Overall, solid place and worked well for us. Would have been better if these details were taken care of.

Beautiful home in residential area

We were in the area for a wedding and had grandparents, parents, and five kids (ages 6-16) in the house. It was a great size, ample sleeping space. Beautiful common rooms. Nice TVs and no trouble connecting to games. Pool table/ping pong table in the basement was fun. It poured so we weren't outside but there was a gorgeous porch and backyard as well as a swing set that I'm sure my kids would have enjoyed if we could be out. Nice washer/dryer on 2nd floor. Showers had great water pressure and were plenty warm. The owner, Michael, was extremely kind and responsive when I emailed. Kitchen was hit or miss on what it had - for example no regular coffee pot but a Keruig. Two bowls so we had to improvise and use cups for cereal. Linens provided but only towels. No washcloths or hand towels in bathrooms. The kitchen and washcloth thing were not a big deal to us and it didn't take away from the stay. As I read other reviews, just some small things that could be fixed. However, we all agreed that we would stay there again if we were in the area.

Beware

I will start with the positive. It was a good location to stay with a large group. The beds were made. Bath towels were set out. No hand towels, washcloths or kitchen towels. We arrived and checked in. Unfortunately, the negatives outweigh the positives. I sent a long message to the owner. 23 hours ago, with no response. I felt it was important to alert him to our concerns. When we first arrived, we quickly noticed that the kitchen was filthy. The stovetop had debris on it and was just plain dirty. There was a box of hot chocolate packets that were eaten by a rodent. there were droppings in the kitchen cabinets, and under the sink. They were also mouse droppings upstairs in the bedrooms The carpet did not look like it had been cleaned/vacuumed. One bedroom still had trash on the floor, beef jerky, and pop tarts, the primary bedroom had half a bottle of Johnny Walker black in the dresser, there was also a used cleaning rag on top of the dresser. The shower glass in the primary bathroom was filthy with soap and shampoo scum, mold on tile. The full bath in the hallway upstairs was truly not operational. The diverter for the shower did not work, and it also did not drain, the handle for the shower fell off, we fixed it with the screwdriver left on the toilet. When the shower ran, the water seemed to dump off out of a pipe into the backyard. I could go on, but they do not give me enough space to finish this review.

Work trip gone terribly wrong.

I hate to leave a bad review like this but this experience was unacceptable. 2 full days of driving(11 - 12 hours each day), Four man work crew from KC to Boston area. We arrived and the door code did not work. Repeated attempts to text and call the host went without success. Contacted VRBO and they too were unsuccessful to reach host. By some stroke of luck we found an unlocked window after 45 minutes - an hour of standing out in the cold weather. Finally inside we were able to settle in for the night. Contact from the host was made following day, at 10AM, as we were on jobsite working. Said he had an emergency?!! YES, So did we!! Said the code should now work. That evening the code did actually work. Fast forward to the night before checkout. Came back to the house and it seemed cooler, thermostats indicated that as well. The heater and water heater wasnt working properly. Next morn all of us woke up to a cold house and NO HOT water at all. One Rec type family room to the house had an electric heater that was the only source of heat we could find. This room is on first floor. Our bedrooms were on second floor. I am guessing after all said and done, the gas to the house was off? Needless to say it made for a great two day drive back to KC. I will wait to hear from the host and VRBO to see if they will be reimbursing me for any of these issues. If it hadnt been for these issues, the place was otherwise a decent place to stay. VRBO was no help at all either.
