While the house itself is large and comfortable, it was not as clean as it should have been. The owner blamed the previous rental group and the lack of time to clean it for us. Poor excuse, in my opinion.
We found ants in the garage/playroom, towels hanging on a drying rack in the hallway, a dirty oven and full recycle bins so we had nowhere to put our recyclables. Also, without any notice from the owner, four mattresses were delivered while we were having dinner one night.
The owner responded to our calls and agreed to compensate us for these inconveniences, but so far there has been no further communication from him. I hope he wlll honor his word.
