I've stayed in many vacation rentals & managed Bed & Breakfast Inns. Therefore I was very dismayed at condition of this property. Generally rundown aura overall starting w/entry gate's peeling paint & walkway falling apart & littered w/branches, leaf debris, old nursery plant labels and pot, & candy wrappers. Largest issue, however, is a health concern for those w/mold allergies. There's a strong pervasive moldy odor the moment you enter the studio. Mold affected my breathing so severely I became very ill & ended up taking a financial loss leaving half-way through my planned week stay. Even clean clothes had to be washed w/Borax to eliminate the odor and spores; suitcases had to be cleaned. There's no privacy curtain on full-length glass front doors, contrary to what's shown on site photo. There's hit and miss privacy on shower window; a few tied scarves. Only hand towel provided was a seemingly old, raspy feeling, dark one that did not smell fresh. Paper plates/plastic cutlery provided as are glasses, casino mugs, ground coffee. Coffee maker has a broken, missing lid on half its top. If bringing groceries note mini fridge has just over a square foot interior space, does have a tiny freezer but no cube tray. Lighting is dim throughout the unit except in shower. The current to these dim lights caused fading in and out, mainly in the evening. One morning half the power to studio failed. I called the owner asking to reset breaker to restore power, which they did immediately. They said they had an electrician coming out for another matter & would check on things that afternoon. Other issues were soiled drapes, broken shutters at front windows, random pieces of trim & baseboards missing in spots throughout, 1 missing & 1 partially ripped out curtain hanger on front door, and an old, worn throw covering sofa. Walls between attached home are very thin; you will hear conversations, coughing, sneezing, snoring, doors closing, etc; some nights noise level increased in evening til 11:30PM. Communication prior to arrival: I left a msg and booked 1 month ahead but didn't receive any word from host til 2AM the day I was to arrive after I'd sent a concerned note 10PM the night before regarding check in procedure. Place has great potential w/location and setting but the mold issue alone is severe enough to downgrade the rating. Anytime I've booked w/a large deposit places have been high grade and pristine so the poor condition of this rental really surprised me.
