The house was nice, but the owner seemed to expect more from the renters than other homes we have rented and we have rented several different houses. We arrived and checked out the notebook at the front door that explained things around the house and discovered that even though we paid a cleaning fee, common in other homes we have rented, we were expected to wash the towels and strip the beds before we left, not common. We had noticed when we arrived there were many potted plants outside and patio furniture with fabric cushions. The weather during our stay was over 90 degrees and predictions of rain, so we were asked to water plants and cover furniture if we thought it was going to rain. These things may have been irritating but we next discovered that the TVs did not seem to work. As we were contacting the owner, we found a modem in the basement, a basement that while finished smelled so musty I would not want to sit down there. We also found some chicken scratched instructions on several electronics booklets in the notebook. We also received a response from the owner informing us that we had to have a Spectrum app on our phones in order to make the TVs work. While that was off putting, it only became more frustrating when we tried to use the app, but could not make that work either. The owner continued to message us stating that we were the only visitors to have problems with the TVs, no other helpful information to get the TVs working. The owner while not offering any help did suggest that the elderly persons within our family might want to pass their time, with kid’s coloring books, cards and kid’s games that were provided, none of which I recognized. Also upon arrival we needed to move all the chachkies to utilize any of the tabletop spaces for our things. Its quite obvious the owner is interested strictly in her ability to showcase design and form atmosphere over function. The house served its function in that we had a place to sleep, but I could have gotten that in a hotel. However, I do not think it unreasonable to expect more given our experience renting other homes and what I paid to stay in this house. If you have expectations based on other home rentals experiences, I would not recommend this house. Nor will I utilize homeaway application again for this experience.
