It’s a huge house, with lots of space, plenty of comfortable furniture, in a good location, it’s quiet & is a good value. Overall a pleasant experience, but a few areas could use some improvement:
Communicating through the VRBO app was not the great, as sometimes it took an hour for msgs to be sent or received, & weirdly it hid phone #’s– would’ve been better to get Hamid’s # upfront.
There are lots of little things either need fixing, or better stocking – icemaker was not working, there were no paper towels & only a few rolls of TP (which would be fine if we knew in advance so we could’ve stocked up), several kitchen cabinet doors were loose (one hanging from just one hinge), most soap dispensers were almost completely empty. For a house sleeping up to 8 guests, there needs to be more silverware, more dishes, & a colander would’ve been nice, as well as a few more bath & hand towels (plus some washcloths).
I’ve stayed at houses around the world, but never in one that did not have a guide book, or some sort of document covering procedures like what to do with the trash/recycling, Wi-Fi password, contact information, front door code, instructions for appliances like the coffee maker, what to do with our dirty linen, or even that we need to take our shoes off at the front door.
Lastly, for a house this size, there needs to be more than one key, or at least a code for the front door.
Hopefully these suggestions will be useful & taken in the spirit of constructive criticism.
