Reviews

• Short distance from campus

  4/5

  House is very clean and recently remodeled. Not sure it was complete. House and location suited our needs very well. The distance from campus was great. Neighborhood wasn’t what we expected. Communication with host was awful.

• DO NOT BOOK THIS PLACE ! Very Sketchy

  1/5

  Highly do not recommend booking this place. It is located in a very sketchy part of town, surrounded by nothing but abandoned homes. We arrived to random pieces of trash located all over the home, Urine on the bathroom floors, random half used men’s care items, half hung curtains, random food left behind, trash from previous stay , and half made beds that looked like they were slept in. We ended up getting a hotel downtown as that was safer and way less than the total of this property. We lost our money which is fine I guess. I’m 100% surprised this property is allowed on Vrbo, or any other site. Communication with owners was not timely. Customer service said this property was cleaned to its standard… not at all. They need a new cleaning service asap! I’ve stayed at a lot of Vrbos and this was by far the worst experience I’ve ever had. Save your money and just stay at a hotel HORRIBLE!

• House was nice but neighboring houses were questionable.

  3/5

  House was updated but neighborhood was sketchy. No plates, glasses, bowls or coffee mugs so drinking coffee was a challenge. House served its purpose but probably wouldn’t stay again. I like to wake up and take a walk but wouldn’t feel safe in this area.

• perfect for trade shows

  5/5

  Stayed here for a trade show at the convention center. It was only a short uber ride into town but allowed me to get away from it all at the end of the day.
