They hook you with the pool. While the pool was an absolute blast for the kids, it needed some much needed cleaning before our arrival and even during our stay. Yes, I'm aware that normal debris will accumulated in the pool during the week however not having access to a pool skimmer to clean the surface and remove said debris during the stay isn't ideal. All brushes and skimmers for the pool are locked up leaving the renter to come up with a way to skim the debris and bugs from the water every day. The pool was supposedly cleaned on Sunday (we arrived on Saturday) however the skimmer baskets weren't emptied at all and the property owners only gave a mere explanation that the pool would be cleaned again on Saturday--the day of departure.
Kicking back to check-in: the cleaning crew arrived 20 minutes prior to our 3/pm check-in time. Granted, we were 20 minutes early but they cleaned up until 4/pm leaving 3 adults and 3 kids stranded under the house in the heat to await their completion of the cleaning.
Kick it forward to the night of check-in and I noticed that ALL of our feet were black from walking around on the floors and I'm not talking about the cement. I'm talking about the floors in the house. Mind you--the cleaning crew was just out earlier to clean the house. I'm not sure if mopping or cleaning the floors were included. I had to wash the kids' feet each night AGAIN before bed even AFTER they supposedly came out a second time to "clean the floors". I highly recommend the home owners block out time for the floors to undergo a DEEP CLEAN and suggest the cleaning company use something other than a Swiffer Sweeper Mop.
I should have took a review I read to heart. It was about the floors and no bath mats. The listing specifically states that the home is equipped with bath mats. They are not. Luckily I packed bath mats just on the in case the review was correct.
Also, if you like to hear a toilet run or don't want the toilet to flush, I highly suggest you stay in the master bedroom with the king bed or the downstairs room. And if you love the smell of sewer, walk into the kitchen or stay in the master.
One more thing--the room with the bunk-beds and twin bed: First, the mattress pads, blankets, and comforters were NOT cleaned. And then there's the matter of the twin mattress standing up between the twin bed and the bunkbeds--YUCK.
