Improvements Needed
This is a cozy "cottage" home is on the back of the property, behind another larger home. The side gate and entry was overgrown and when we had rain, the front parking was 3" underwater.
We had issues because the water heater temperature was above the allowed Florida temperature and the owner called a plumber to adjust it. He did not repair the toilet which was running continually on his first trip. He did fix the running toilet on the third day of our five night stay. The running toilet made it difficult to sleep.
The home would benefit from a half day of work from a handyman to address the following issues: fix the broken blinds in the master bedroom, replace the weather stripping on the door so mosquitoes cannot come into the house, replace the rusted shower curtain rod, tighten the cabinet hinges so they will not fall off when opened, replace the toilet paper holder so the roll will not fall on the floor everytime you touch it, rehang the mirror that was originally hung without anchors and is angled on the floor of the bedroom entry, and hire a landscape crew to trim the overgrown ivy, trees, and trim the walkways.
Upon arrival, we discovered discrepencies in the terms of the rental like the limited hours of the laundry in the big house. The owner messaged us while it was raining to move our vehicle. We had the impression that the larger home is the primary property and the "cottage" is an afterthought, including the guests.
We wished it was better.
