The Gatsby House: A Historic Gem!

We apologize again for the delay in entry. I was glad I was able to help. Thank you for your patience feedback. We appreciate it!

We appreciate your feedback. Thank you so much!

Thank you so much! We appreciate your feedback.

Thank you for your feedback. I do want to clarify a few things for future guests. You decided not to stay within about 20 minutes of arriving and did not spend the night or experience the home itself. I cannot control neighboring properties or street parking, and while this is an older, up-and-coming neighborhood, I have managed this property for nearly two years and have never had another guest report safety concerns. There was no busted sewer line or active sewage issue. Before your arrival, I explained that sewer work had previously been done at the neighboring property and that the damaged sidewalk was related to that work. The home is over 100 years old and does have central air. Because historic homes can struggle during extreme heat, we also provide window units upstairs for additional comfort. The back doorknob was not hanging on by a thread or tampered with. It was simply loose and needed tightened. This reservation was booked under a strict no-refund policy and was canceled at check-in. Even so, I still tried to compromise and issue a partial refund. Due to a platform error, you received more than intended. When I requested the additional $105 back, it was because a VRBO representative advised me to do so. I respect your right to leave a review, but I believe it’s important for future guests to know that this review was based largely on assumptions about the neighborhood rather than issues actually experienced while staying in the home.
