Upon entry, flies, gnats and unidentified flying bugs flying around in living room, kitchen and bedroom. No dishwasher soap, ran out of soap in bathroom on day 3, burnt out light on the very dirty back porch which also included a bucket full of cigarette butts. The pull-out bed was full of food and crumbs when we pulled it out to use it. During rain, the door to the house leaks so we had standing water at the entry point. The refrigerator leaks. There are not any wash clothes to do the dishes and no dishwasher soap, so not really possible to wash the dishes. While trying to find a decent size pan, I came across some cooked chicken strips in the cabinets just laying in there, I threw out a few of them, but not all. Didn't find a pan bigger than a 6 inch skillet to make food for 5 people. We made it work, but a larger average size pan would be nice.
I understand that the air gets turned up when not in use, but as advised we turned it to 78, so why was it 81 in there when we arrived. HOT and took all night to cool down. The roku stick also doesn't work well, it errors out a lot. Not a big deal to us, just making note.
We tried to wash and dry some towels, but the dryer doesn't dry anything. We ran it 4 times and towels were still wet. That was trying multiple settings.
The kitchen could really use some pepper (plenty of nutmeg :) ) and maybe a spare roll of paper towels as we quickly ran out.
The place has potential. It's in a nice neighborhood, grocery store is next door. We were disappointed in how dirty it was inside though. I did not reach out to the owner as I wasn't going to expect her to come clean the place while we were there. We just dealt with it. I had just hoped for a much cleaner, better stocked place for the price. The owner was very nice when I did communicate with her before our trip. It's quite possible there is a cleaning company that does the cleaning and they are just failing. I'd give the owner another try in hopes of a better experience.
