1 hab apt en Sydney más de 200 años de edad, casa encantada con suavidad

We are glad you enjoyed your stay at The Gently Haunted house. Did you hear any of the mild bumps in the night of our old home?? Please come back and see us again!

We always want our guests to have a great experience! I'm thrilled that your ghostly experience wasn't too scary. Please do ket me know if any of you heard any bumos in the night???

I'm glad everything was well during your stay! I take it a funky shower was the height and not the smell😀I enjoy putting in a little something with a special toch, when it comes to foods. Glad your dad is well!

You are spot on when you mention "old neighborhood". Our house is very bare bones but 200 years old and the 1st one here at that time. I'm happy you enjoyed your stay in our "spartan home." It is not much, we know but we are happy here. Since you stayed we have renovated a bit more and added more comfortable furniture and another bed.Thank you for the compliment referring to me as delightful to work with and please do stop by next time you're in town.

Dear Patti, Thank you for your response. We have since changed out the beds to very cosy replacements. We always reply asap to our guests, yet at that time we were in no service area on an island. As far as the Netflix issue we are not able to control when the Netfix is temporarily down. The tenant downstairs at that time had the same issue, since all the Netflix accounts were down. I'm happy the rest of your stay was great and you enjoyed the groceries we provided. Kindly, Elizabeth

The house is in Sydney, so is not necessary to state which suburb it is in. Whitney Pier is a very safe and culturally diverse area, which some people like, while others do not, depending on the people. The unit was damaged after hurricane Fiona, which was explained prior to your arrival, (which was why we were hesitant to have people stay)as was the height of the sit down shower described both by me and in the listing. You assured me it was fine.The only valid complaint you had was the broken bed, for which I do apologize for. Had you let me know I would've happily changed the bed out, this way i would have been able to remedy it had you told me.

You wrote this review on a unit that you haven't even stayed in. I felt sorry for you, since you let me know that there was a death in the family 3 months prior to booking. I was very kind in offering you our 2700 sq ft home in the country instead of the smaller unit that you had tried to book, which was under renovations, for the same low price. You in turn, took advantage of the situation. I wrote in multiple messages that under no circumstances were animals allowed past the foyer (since this is our home, and one of my sons is highly allergic to dogs & animals.) I also had let you know that you would have the entire place to yourselves, other than the foyer, which my son needed to enter since the electrical room is there, and we needed access to the breaker panel since we stayed in the RV to let you stay in our home. We also bought you a good supply of groceries, and were extremely great hosts to you, which you know, Shelley. When my son and I came to the door to enter the foyer, we saw the dog cross the threshold and enter our home, which you of course, denied to our faces. At that time, we also counted 7 cats in our foyer. We couldn't even get in through the front door since you had it blocked with our shoe tree, to accommodate all your litter boxes. Your daughter then yelled at us to go wait on our back deck in the dark. Looking back, we should have asked you to find other accomodations at that point, yet we took pity on you since you informed us that the previous host pretended they weren't home. The previous host likely saw the 6-7 cats and dog in tow (which they likely had no idea about as well.) and that is probably why wisely they wouldn't let you in. Even after talking with you on the deck, you asked for another favor, to allow the cats in the living areas of our house. When we told you, no, you did it anyway. I have never had a guest act so deplorably, when only kindness was shown to them. Maybe next time you stay somewhere with a fleet of animals in tow, make sure your host don't have a Ring Doorbell. You were told this was our private home and were informed of the public area having video surveillance, so saying we were looking in windows to excuse your selfish behavior is disgusting. I truly feel bad for anyone having the misfortune renting to you. I also wanted to let you know, that you also left a mess in the home with your animals. Thankfully though, VRBO reinmursed us as we were unable to go back to our home for over a week. Elizabeth

Thank you for your kind comments! Since your stay we have updated the unit....except for the shower....and please do come back for a stay, when you're back in the Sydney area.

Thank you for your kind words and we now have a door to the apartment. When you stayed it was vacant downstairs, so you had complete privacy, but since another unit has been completed, the door is necessary. The shower is as stated in the description and was installed by a not so swift contractor. Please come back anytime you are in the Sydney area, where you'll find more modern furniture and updates to this unit.
