Beyond the great location and pet friendly policy, this property is dated, poorly maintained, and not worth the nightly rate. The beds were extremely uncomfortable—the couch was better. We left a day early because we couldn't sleep, and the issues affecting our stay were not things the host could realistically address during our stay. The bedding, towels, and furnishings felt cheap/worn. The bedding was microfiber, and all of towels were old, pilling, mismatched in color, and heavily worn and have never been bleached. We ended up using our beach towels because the provided towels did not feel clean. The kitchen was minimally equipped, the toilet was not properly secured and rocked every time it was used, the wooden stairs were unfinished, and the lack of a dishwasher raised additional concerns about cleanliness.I can say that the fridge/freezer kept food cold, although the freezer had no shelves. The AC eventually cooled the apartment, but it relied on 3 additional loud window units and took 9 hours to reach a comfortable temp of 72. Considering it's summer in NC, arriving to find the thermostat set at 80 and being asked to turn the system completely off when leaving felt illogical.Everything about this VRBO seems to be operated with cost-cutting as the primary concern. There was also a pet goat in the VRBO unit below us. While While it did not directly impact our stay, it raised questions about cleanliness standards, especially since the units appear to be managed together
