The owner did not disclose that someone was living in the basement. There was a door that connected the basement to the rented living space, and we only discovered that someone was down there by hearing sounds. We could not be sure that the basement door could not be unlocked from the basement side, and so did not feel safe staying there. We left, and the owner is refusing to reimburse us. I would not recommend this unsettling / frightening experience to anyone. Anything but cozy.
I was looking for an inexpensive place to stay and I had no illusions that it would be much more than adequate. And it was entirely adequate for our purposes. We got in late, we were out early and it was a good place to spend what time we had. Love the Christmas tree in the TV room. Nice touch. And the price was right.
The property was great for what we needed. The owner was attentive. Property could use some upgrades but it was still a great stay.
This was a nice place to stay. Nothing fancy, but perfectly good to spend a night or two at!
If it had a washer and dryer nd definitely better water pressure there was hardly none
Very clean, lots of space. Super quiet neighborhood.
It was a basic house. We were gone early each morning and came back late every night.
Came for the Big E & this house was just great! Comfy beds, good A/C, & easy check in process.
We came for Brimfield and just needed a reasonable place to stay. This is a little old , not updated, two bedroom one bath house. Not fancy by any means but clean,comfortable and safe.
The property is very convenient to WNE. There were quirks and things that need repair. It is like staying at a college student house. Be aware there are not the typical VRBO amenities like bath soap, hand towels, shampoo and coffee. A few weekends of TLC and several gallons of paint, and this could be a real treat. Note: the basement is listed on a different service.
This property had highlights like well-functioning AC units during a summer stay, comfortable beds, a nice couch, and a good variety of tv channel options. Unfortunately, the spacious kitchen was not stocked with tools for cooking despite having plentiful plates and bowls. The property also appears to have been abused by past guests as evidenced by damage to the walls and doors. This is a nice, little house - please be kind to it.
Perfect for a short stay. My family lives in Springfield so I went to celebrate my 70th birthday with them but didn’t want to impose on family or just get a hotel room. Everything was just as advertised. Quiet neighborhood, could use a little updating.
There were several things wrong with the house. Took a video of how the house looked and now the owner who when he finally did come to visit us introduced himself as someone else. He basically had lied to us. Now he is accusing us of damaging the house and is attempting to charges for things that were broken and in disrepair upon our arrival. Very poor communication and a very dishonest host. We canceled our second visit with him and lost a lot of money. The money that we spent and the money that he kept that should be plenty to get the repairs done that should have been repaired prior to our stay. If you read further into the comments left by other visitors stating things such as the kitchen faucet being loose and nearly falling off and the hallway being very slanted and dangerous for guests. Just a very disappointing stay especially on our honeymoon.
Old and not well maintained.
It was a pleasant stay and we enjoyed our weekend. Thank you!
It definitely recommend my friends. Amazing house and neighborhood.
clean and quiet. plenty of room to work as it was a business trip. really cant nit pick the small things, it was a cheap place and provided us with exactly what we needed.
Booked house for 5 days with my mother (73). The house has some issue with the hallway slanting to one side. If you have anyone that is not steady on there feet this is not going to work. When we contacted them, stating we felt on safe and would have to find other housing and requested a PARTIAL refund for the days that we were not staying. The owner said that the evaluation done before you shows nothing as to post safety risk to guest so we will not be getting a refund. I understand that not all guest have the same concerns however I would have hoped they could work with us. The house had a few minor things, beds and couch were not comfortable. The faucet for the kitchen sink seemed like it was going to come off, when we used it and the water/ice didn't work for the fridge. The blinds had some missing pieces and only sheer curtains. But it was clean and that was all the representative seemed to care about. GFSF
