My husband & I took our two nieces (ages 11/14) w/ us to visit our daughter for X-Mas & stayed @ this property for 4 days. It was a nightmare! First off, it’s NOT 2 Bedrooms! There was one Master B/Room w/ a tiny closet and the girls stayed in an area that the owners call a “Bedroom” that had no closet & NO VENT for HEAT/AIR. So when it got down to 11 degrees at night, the owner just thought a “space-heater” would suffice! Not okay! The girls slept w/me and my husband had to sleep in a freezing cold in the “so-called bedroom” that had a small space heater. After going back & forth w/ the owner, I told her that, “It was unacceptable to let 2 children freeze at night in 11 degree weather & it was her responsibility as a “renter” to ensure that we had adequate heat. Her response I’ll get you more blankets and another space heater. (Which was just as small)
Keep in mind she advertised the rental as having a working“Fire-Place” which didn’t work at all. She also has a camera in the hallway (which is unlawful if you don’t inform the occupants they are being filmed). Not to mention that the door that leads to her area of the house just kept mysteriously opening at odd times (as if they were checking in on us) “very creepy”! I guess the iceing on the cake was when she gave us the 2nd space heater to use to keep the children warm and the, power went out! Not once but 4 times, because she stated, “ It is an old house and a circuit kept tripping”.. So she had to run an extension cord from her home upstairs to our private living area downstairs…
Because there is no way to control your own temperature in the rented living area downstairs. Yep, that’s right! Every time, you want it warmer or colder, you have to text her and when she gets around to it she may or may not do it….
Lastly, this place I will say is very clean and well decorated but it is “SMALL”! Whoever, took those photos on VRBO used some very wide lense….
All I can say is, when a women doesn’t care about the well-being of 2 children freezing in 11 degree weather and thinks it’s okay for them to sleep in an area/room that has NO Heat- that is just in humane.
Moreover, it’s false advertisement and unethical to lie and mislead people about the property you are renting out…
