Good:
The place looked exactly like the photos. From a hosting perspective, everything was executed extremely well. And it was the cleanest short term rental I've ever stayed at in terms of dirt, dust, stains, etc. The furniture was very nice and comfortable, including really nice bedding/mattresses. The place had every possible thing you could need and then some.
Bad:
Random ants would show up in the kitchen, dining room, living room, and bathroom and get on/in our stuff.
The house has a strong "old house" odor throughout, but we got used to it quickly. My wife slept with the baby in the back room and I slept with my other kid in the carpeted room. That room has a strong mildew odor that I initially attributed to the "old house" smell, but once I laid down, I realized it was much stronger. It's more noticeable when laying in bed because it seems to be coming from the floor/carpet. The first night I got into bed before 10 PM and couldn't sleep due to the odor. Finally, around 1:00 AM, I gave up and opened the window (it was 45F outside). It helped with the odor, but then there was an owl hooting all night. I finally fell asleep around 3AM and had to be up before 7 with the kids. This was our only full day in town and it was rough. The second night, I opened the window before bed and it helped again, but between the train horns, hooting owl(s), cars and people passing by, and the cold, I didn't get much sleep. I'm happy to be home.
