I wanted to love this property. The owners have made such an effort to make a small space livable - with the right amount of quirky. I loved the walls, floor, comfy chairs and flax/linen comforter cover. Communication was really great when I had problems connecting to the internet (router and password are not accurate on VRBO listing). OK, here's the problem(s). Immediately upon entering, both my husband and I noticed the slight smell of mildew / mustiness that, unfortunately, did not dissipate for me. I was having problems dealing with it. Was it coming from the walls (no, they were sealed), the bedding (no, smelled fresh), the air conditioning or elsewhere (I don't know). 2nd, a prior renter had mentioned that the shower door did not close all the way and I had the exact same issue (it wasn't fixed) - the lower hinge had moved somehow and my husband had to really crank on the door to get it closed - I thought it was going to break. I had to have him let me out of the shower. Things are just a bit "unfinished" - bare wood on countertop and kitchen cupboard. The silverware was dirty and I didn't have any confidence that any of the dishes or silverware were clean. It didn't help that the silverware was stored in a rusted tin container. Sure, I appreciated the rustic touches, but NOT when it comes to eating utensils. Unfortunately, it was just a bit TOO rustic for me.
