Great property and host
The property was great and clean, super comfortable bed. The host was very responsive to our questions and ensured that we were able to access the property without issue.
The only caution is all the extra fees on top of the rental rate. Be prepared for a "cleaning fee" as well as a mandatory "damages fee" that is to be refunded but required to be paid up front.

Unacceptable conditions
Although the location was convenient the cleanliness of this spot was terrible. For customers to be charged over 100 for a cleaning fee and it wasn’t cleaned prior to my arrival is unacceptable. Wasn’t able to stay on my check in night because it was covered in dead bugs and dirty linen. Even contacting the owner their response times are decent but you get no questions answered. The bugs weren’t cleaned until the Folsom day but there is still a bug infestation. There are no windows so no room for correctly ventilation. I asked for an air purifier and at first they said they would provide one then later said they didn’t have one. The shower looks dirty and when i told them about that they stated it was from hair due so it wouldn’t come out. The pictures on the website aren’t as accurate compared to when you actually check in. When I reached out regarding a refund for the night I wasn’t able to stay due to the uninhabitable conditions and them needing to clean they kept saying they needed to get in contact with management and they’ll get back to me. I reached out multiple times and kept getting the same answer. To this day I still haven’t heard about the refund. So i asked to extend an extra day instead of the refund. Same response, “we’ll get back to management and let you know”. No one has ever let me know. So of course i contacted customer service. Hopefully they’ll have a better job at communicating with these people. I would not be staying here again, but do better.

Disliked: Check-in, communication
Deep disappointment, communication breakdown
I have already communicated with VRBO customer service that I was unable to make use of the stay due to malfunctioning seurity system at the property after much frustration in checking in by cell phone via TravelBridge. My refund request is "under review" at Travelbridge where they say it is subject to their policy. VRBO suggested that I contact the "property manager," a Joshua, and gave me a number; when I called, that number led to TravelBridge and other employees who refused to connect me with Joshua and said they were on top of the request. The root of the situation was an entry keypad that was invisible unless a button was pushed (that had no labeling) and then malfunctioned, giving a recording "operation failed" and on the third attempt lighting up red. After I had canceled and was 10 minutes up the road, TravelBridge called having found a key, but at that point my confidence was shot and I was not about to stay in a building with a faulty security system. I communicated this clearly. TravelBridge's employee sent a message saying "Travel plans change but refunds are up to us" -- completely distorting the situation. I was so looking forward to this stay and cooperated with the cumbersome requirments to photograph security documents from the parking lot, talk with TravelBridge while texting photos which is not simple on my phone, etc. Having a local representative to deal with in person would have surelly cut through this situation and made the stay possible.
