ERMELO Hideaway

We spent three wonderful days at Stefan's house. Stefan was always available and gave us lots of recommendations. I'd like to point out that the house has all the latest appliances, a beautiful new terrace, and a stunningly beautiful and quiet courtyard. The house is very cozy, warm, and has everything you need for a vacation and for living. Thank you Stefan, and we will definitely rent this house again and highly recommend it.

Deplorable rotted deck, musty cloths in washing machine and on drying racks, moldy bathmat with dirty bathtub. Overall, very disappointed Wi/Fi ran hardly. Not the relaxing 14 days we expected. Lucky for us the location was ideal for long day trips to Belgium, Germany and North Holland.

Clean and comfortable

Hello, after we‘ve been in your house for the weekend we can say that it wasn‘t what we expected. We had a very good time but the setup wasn‘t perfect. We came in and the terrace was in such a bad condition, the bathroom was dirty, why we needed to clean it ourselves before we could use it. We made the booking for 5 people and we could just find 4 duvets. The Garbage wasn’t empty and in fridge there was moldy food. We found little insects in our bed and all in all it was very dusty.We payed for it and it‘s the least to remove all the dirt and used stuff for a pleasant stay

We were excited about booking this property when reading the posting. When we arrived later in the evening we found the only way to the front door was crossing a rickety, rotted out deck with nails sticking up all over. The strong odor of musty/mold greeted us when we opened the door. Host told us to just open some windows. Then we found there was a ladder type stairs to go up to the sleeping area. We are in our 70’s and can’t do stairs due to back and knee problems. But it was not listed in the posting that there would be stairs, or even a second floor. So we could not stay there because of that. Plus, we found clothes still in the washer and the floors looked as though they had not been swept since the last occupants. We were in the place not more than 5 min. Called the host. He was not happy we wanted a refund. On such short notice , it was now 8pm, we then had to locate another place to stay and lost a day of vacation having to locate and relocate lodging, since no place could lodge us for 4 straight nights. We have had to fight to get a little tiny refund. Having to pay out twice for lodging for the same 4 day vacation does not make us happy. We have never before given a negative review. We have lost our trust in VRBO. Don’t ever want to repeat this experience.
