Please do not subject yourself to this property or the property manager.
Let's start with the listing:
- while there is a photo of the "shower" it does not adequately explain that this is a tub only. There is not a true shower unless you are under four feet tall - so if you're a little person this particular point doesn't apply to you. I'm 5 foot 8 and the "shower" came to my navel and I had to kneel to get the "shower" to my shoulders.
- The stairs to the unit are not only steep but covered in moss and mold, and the banister is shakey. If you are not an athlete or have ever had mobility issues this should be a concern for you. My husband and I are both former athletes but recovering from injuries, and we still almost fell down at least once each.
The check in process:
The property manager did not communicate any arrival information until I reached out at the time of check in, we got in ok but there were some weird excuses for not having provided check in procedures in advance.
Inside:
- The property is short overall, it's the loft space of a converted garage or barn. The ceiling is very low and we each hit our head, me getting out of bed to use the restroom and him walking down the hall.
- in addition to being short it feels very cramped due to the short ceilings
- there is a skylight over the bed that makes the room VERY bright
- the only good point is it was fairly quiet
Check out:
- after completing a long list of checkout cleaning procedures, despite barely staying at the unit beyond sleeping and one morning reheating leftover pizza from dinner with the family we had been visiting, we departed.
- a week later the property manager sent a demand for extra payment because they "didn't know" we were bringing our therapy dog. Not only are dogs listed as being allowed but we both mentioned in writing and marked on the form when making the reservation. Furthermore, the property manager "Holly" acknowledged that we were bringing our dog and apologized for not leaving the dog items out. The text message to us read: "'doggie stuff' was not put out. In the drawer *right* by the front door, there is a couch cover, some towels, and I think an extra door mat. :o) Please do your best. :o)"
- Then the property manager made a claim that we damaged the unit. The property manager has provided no evidence of any damage, and we are still working with VRBO to solve.
The space is not worth the headaches you will encounter from the property manager.
