I rented Kevin's home for 5 days with friends around the 4th of July for a wedding that was in Newport, which Kevin's home was advertised as being perfect for. Kevin consistently badgered me with messages throughout our stay, and showed up at the house unannounced on several occasions - once before 6am, looking through the windows to see the status of it while we were asleep, which one guest noticed while using the bathroom. He showed up again to scold us for having the windows open in the morning when it was raining, and I explained that we had fallen asleep with the windows open (when it was not raining) because it was hot and the house has no A/C. He entered the home at this time and berated me, which was very uncomfortable. At the end of our stay, Kevin called me to ask how we were going to rate our stay, which felt very unprofessional.
I travel and utilize short-term rentals frequently, and I have to say this was the most unpleasant experience I've had with a host. The house is nice and in a good location, but our experience with the host distracted from the wedding, unfortunately.
