Our initial impression of the property was disappointing. Upon arrival, we found bags of trash torn open spread all over the right side of the house, it had maggots all over it. On the left side, there was what appeared to be a urine bottle, and a camper was parked on the property. Us among many I’ve read had issues getting into the property. The host was helpful to resolving the code issue to the front door. It was far from welcoming, even from a group of men.
While the duplex itself is updated and offers plenty of sleeping space, it lacks a fire wall between units and does not have soundproofing, making it difficult to avoid disturbing the tenants below. We were informed of noise monitoring system in the home and quiet hours upon check-in, but if we had known this in advance, we would not have booked this property.
During our game night, we received multiple noise complaints despite our efforts to keep the noise down. It felt a bit intrusive, especially as we were just trying to enjoy ourselves.
Additionally, the duplex does not have air conditioning in the whole house, one of the rooms did have a portable ac unit. Overall the house was very hot.
For those considering a stay, this property may not be ideal for families or anyone planning to stay up late, given the noise monitoring, poor property cleaning/outside up keep, the close proximity of the neighboring camper and lower unit. I do feel the host fees are not responsible either coming from a property owner.
