The home was a perfect place to stay while visiting my cousin who goes to Dayton University. It was close to the campus and the art district (yummy restaurants and cute bar scene). Street parking was easy. House comfortable and cozy. We enjoyed how the host decorated with local Dayton photos. We would stay here again if in the area.

We dig it!
The house is cute! It's also clean and comfortable. We enjoyed being so close to restaurants and having easy access to highways. The next time we are in town and in need of a VRBO, we will look here first!

Close to UD
This stay was good. The house is good and the neighborhood is quaint. The home is close to University of Dayton and it is down the street from Miami Valley hospital. The home is close to restaurants in fact there is a Biggy coffee shop within waking distance. The fenced yard provided a good space to let the dog go out without being on a leash. The one issue we had was with the TV and only having Roku and no access to local channels, not a big issue in the major scheme of things.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location
Disliked: Communication
We chose this place because it seemed perfect for us and our small dog—and in many ways, it was. The location is great, close to Cassano’s and Coco’s, and the unit itself is clean, well-equipped with WiFi, complimentary drinks, and basic cooking utensils.However, what ultimately prevented us from staying was a very strong and unpleasant smell inside the unit. It was overwhelming and lingered on our clothes, similar to mothballs. According to Evolve, this was due to annual pest (moth) maintenance, but the odor was simply too strong for us to tolerate—especially since I have asthma.We only stayed for one night and had to check out the same day because of this issue. It’s unfortunate because otherwise, the place would have been a great fit for us.We contacted Evolve, and while they were responsive and acknowledged the issue, we are still waiting for the refund despite being told that the owner agreed to process it. There was also another review mentioning the same smell concern, so this may be an ongoing issue.Overall, the unit itself is clean and in a good location, but the strong odor made it unlivable for us, and the delay in the refund has been disappointing.I will update this review once we receive the refund.

From the owner: "I’m sorry the odor during your stay affected your experience. The issue has since been addressed, and the home is now very pleasant. I truly appreciate your patience. I work hard to provide a comfortable stay for every guest and sincerely hope you were still able to enjoy your time in Dayton."
Host/owner was very friendly and helpful when we left a big ticket item at check out time and he secured it and dropped it off for us. Thank you for going the extra mile!
