Enjoyable stay in the Charlotte area

We were very pleased with the home and enjoyed our stay very much. Ava was very responsive to me and was a pleasure to work with. If we are ever in need of a place to stay in the Charlotte area, we would definitely consider this home again.

Needed more towels

Our reservation was for 11 people for 4 nights and we only had 11 towels. There were none in the bathroom or kitchen so we had to search for them. I didn’t find any extra blankets. And the property was not ready at check in time. It was generally clean but wasn’t the standard I’m used to.

Dirty and bad shower

When we arrived the cleaning supplies were spread out on the steps. Obviously cleaning had not been completed. House felt and smelled dirty. Shower in hall had crooked curtain rod that limited space and could get hot OR cold water-not warm. I have stayed in VERBOS before. My worst experience

Good location, could use some TLC

Pros: Great location for our needs, bathrooms/kitchen/linens were all clean, easy check in and out Cons: Could use some TLC and attention - kitchen faucet broken, trash in the backyard, broken couch, cut linoleum in kitchen, porch was burnt on one corner and railing was apart and potentially unsafe. Owner messaged us about the porch (stated a previous guest had caught it on fire) but that was 2 days after our arrival and we had already discovered that. This should have been disclosed earlier given the porch was featured in the listing. This property is located in an ideal spot for the needs of our trip and could accomidate our entire party. The owner is a real estate agent and uses a cleaning service in between guests. I sent a private message outlining some of the concerns I listed and stated that the house could benefit from some added attention and TLC. There were no dealbreakers but plenty of non-emergent issues which could stand to be fixed. The owner responded and stated that the property would be closed in September (2022) for updating, porch repair and paint. If that ends up happening this could be a great, 5 star house. For the state we found it in, I can only give 3 to 3.5 stars but chose to give 4 for location and cleanliness of bathrooms and kitchen.

Not an enjoyable stay

Family traveled to Charlotte to spend Christmas with grandson who is stationed at Fort Bragg. The kitchen was not equipped to prepare a simple dinner, much less a Christmas feast. The owner is a realtor and should know how to show hospitality to her guests. The pots & pans were old and had gunk all over them; lots of lids for non-existing pots/pans; only 8 place settings (plates, silverware) so we were constantly washing dishes for our party of 6 adults and 1 child. You can buy quality items at a resale store, such as Goodwill, for very reasonable prices; the kitchen items should be scraped … Goodwill would have a hard time selling the pots, pans, etc. Tops of the island in the kitchen and a round coffee table in the living room weren’t attached to their bases and constantly a hazard. I notified the owner of this and she said “renovations were planned.” I feel “renovations planned” should have shown in the description; if it were my house, I would take the listing out of service and when completed, then resist it at the price I paid. Hostess listed bathroom items included, but no shampoo or soap found in house. The bedroom mattresses were very hard and uncomfortable to all of us. The sheets, towels and washcloths were not thick, much less luxurious. The furniture was only adequate; there was a dresser in the master, so I could unpack. Secondary bedrooms did not have any storage for socks, underwear, so my family lived out of a suitcase for the week. All cheap hotels have adequate storage, so guests can unpack! It was expensive and very much overpriced … I wish I had booked a hotel and gone out to eat for our family’s Christmas dinner; I don’t feel like I got my money’s worth. As a VRBO owner in metro Atlanta, hospitality is the name of the game … making your guests comfortable; providing an accurate description with supporting photos; providing items listed, etc. I would NOT rent this house again, nor recommend it to anyone I know.

Family trip for graduation

This was a great property for a family gathering. It was nicely appointed and comfortable. It was a great place for an extended family visit and much nicer than a hotel.

If only it had been properly cleaned.

The home and community were nice. A little older, but nice. With the exception of a missing desk chair, and missing excersise equipment, the listing was furnished as pictured. I was pleased with everything except the cleaning and the communication. Perfect for families like mine. Arriving and finding dirty toilets, bar soap build up in the shower,, trash not emptied in 1 BA, a dirty fridge, trash on 2 floors, and surfaces not dusted was a serious downer. I had to personally clean the bathrooms upon arrival and my husband the fridge the next day. The owner offered to have another cleaning crew come the next day, which was something but not helpful for the situation (we had my FIL 85th bday dinner to shower and dress for). Owner also said my request for a 2 pm check-in was the reason (though I didn't arrive until almost 3:45 and made her aware that I would likely not get there before 3). Either way, I think she should have said she couldn't assure proper cleaning w/earlier check-in so I could have decided if I still wanted to book. It really looked like whoever was there before packed up their stuff, left, and all that was done was a linen change, trash removal and vacuuming (dishes still in the DW...not a biggie). The owner was traveling and delayed responding when I made the reasonable request to refund the "cleaning fee". The final communication said it would be refunded (but I haven't received yet). Overall, the place was spacious, a nice hood, the owner was nice, decor was polite so if I could be assured of the cleaning, I would definitely rent here again.
