Walk to Beach & Main St Hyannis: Cape Cod Home!

Reviews

• 3/5

  If you’re needing a place to stay, it’s an ok option. But if you are spending time at the house I would not recommend. The location is great but everything else was on the more rough side.Before the trip even started, the communication with the Evolve property management was really over complicated and frustrating. I could never get a straight answer. Then, when I asked if we could check in early, I was told maybe and then communication was cut off until it was time to check in. The house was very musty and not very comfortable. Everything seemed very old and not clean. The bedding smelled, the kitchen cups smelled, the beach chairs were broken, the beach towels were ratty, two beds had stained sheets and the pillowcases had holes or (possibly blood) stains on them (photos attached). The hair dryer is so old, the products in the bathroom or kitchen were borderline expired, overall not great. We booked this place for the location and what looked like a nice charming place but it really didn’t meet the mark.

  Manager's Response:

  We’re glad you liked the location, but we’re sorry some aspects of your stay didn’t meet your expectations. We followed up with the homeowner after reading your feedback, and they wanted to clarify the following:
  – Early check-in isn’t always an option, which is why the 4 PM check-in time is clearly noted in the listing and pre-stay communications. From our team at Evolve, we responded to your questions and provided assistance, though we regret that it wasn’t as helpful as you’d hoped.
  – The home is accurately represented in the listing and professional photos. The rates are aligned with what we offer, and it’s a comfortable, correctly advertised option in a great location.
  – We wish you had reached out during your stay to share your concerns. We never heard from you on any of these items, but we’ve taken note of your comments on cleanliness, linens, amenities, and stocking. Our cleaners consistently do a great job preparing the home, and we’ll continue to monitor these areas moving forward.
  The homeowner and their team work hard to provide the best possible guest experience, and we look forward to this property continuing to host many satisfied guests.

  We had a great stay for 11 days. The house is large with everything you could need. The kitchen facilities were great— loaded with lots of pots and pans, dishes, glasses, etc. Having a washer and dryer was a real plus. It’s also extremely clean and the owner, Geoff was very responsive to questions and anything we needed. The location is central to everything and very close to the beaches. Great find!

  Place was very nice and in a perfect location. Half a mile to Keyes Beach in one direction and half a mile to Main Street Hyannis in the other.

  4/5

  We had a good vacation but the house was a little disappointing. The lock box was difficult to put back up on the house, There was only one key and when I called the number no one got back to us until the next day to tell us that there was another key under the mat in front of the door, Not too comforting to know that it was there for anyone to use. The instructions for the wi-Fi was not very clear and we finally found the piece of wood it was painted on in another room. There was only one roll of toilet paper and the house was musty smelling. The entrance and the sitting area outside was not cleaned up well, foliage was so overgrown. the grill was dirty and there were rusty items all around. We opened the back door to be sure of a second exit in case of an emergency and the bushes and trees were so overgrown onto the house. Sorry but I had to be honest. We were quite surprised that any of the VRBO companies would rent a house like this.
