Mona Lisa was a cute, quiet & comfortable villa. Very convenient to downtown Hot Springs. I would like to have known that the property had a bath/hot tub and how to have been able to gain access to it. The back deck could have been swept or blown clean of debris on day of arrival
Bathroom was a little small and no storage space
I brought my daughter for a few days of relaxation before she begins her career as a teacher in a couple of weeks. The Mona Lisa was the perfect size for her us and we loved the location just outside of the business of town. We enjoyed watching fireflies from the patio and caught sight of multiple deer while here. I hope to return one day.
Bedding for pull out was In Bad shape. Blankets and padding very stained. Everything else was in good shape.
100% honest review summarized: this place will be fine as a place to sleep for a couple and maybe a very small child. It's very close to bathhouse row in Hot spring NP. I also saw no signs of bed bugs, or any other living bugs for that matter. The area was peaceful. The surrounding units were apparently empty during our stay. We had a good view from our patio. Unfortunately, the unit has a noticeable odor throughout. There's no vent hood over the stove, so you have to open the patio doors to cook, so we ate out instead. There was dust and crumbs on the kitchen floor, which I noticed after it stuck to my feet 10 minutes after we arrived. Hair on furniture. There's mismatched furniture, and not in a cute way. The couch is tiny and so stiff we couldn't use it. The TV evidently had no remote and only had basic cable after we found the power button. So we didnt use it. Mattress was hard. A few of these little details wouldn't have been an issue, but it really felt like a thrown together unit to make a quick buck. Very uninviting for a anniversary trip. I was actually very disappointed and upset on the first that I chose this place. I was unable to contact the renter through the app with questions. Days passed and our stay was over with no reply. After our stay was over, i thought maybe we were supposed to email them directly? I tried and got a automated sounding email later with a link to another email and no real reply. I wouldn't stay here ever again.
Property was in a excellent location.. close to everything. Villa was beautiful and so peaceful.. only issues were no response from the Property manager we emailed and text and called no response, no remote to the TV, internet was not good at all.
Very nice clean charming Cottage. Quiet neighborhood.
My husband & I thought this was a cute cottage from everything we read about it online. Our first night was sleepless as there were critters running in the attic as this backs up to the woods. We reported it to the manager the following evening. On that following evening the sewer backed up and we were flooded with feces. I’m not kidding! We called the management but he said there wouldn’t be anyone out til the following morning! It was horrible! It was coming out into the kitchen and hall. We packed our belongings late at night and headed out of town. Needless to say, we had a hard time finding a place to stay cause we were btw 2 spring breaks. After we arrived home we contacted management (Evolve) and we weee able to resolve some of the issue, however, they didn’t refund all our money! We sent them copies of our receipts for what we paid. We were highly disappointed in this property and would never ever recommend it to our friends! They’ve even asked where we stayed and I tell them it was not a good experience! Think twice before renting this! I must say the manager on duty was sympathetic and even sent us pictures so that we could submit to Evolve. Thank you for that!
No fuss “checking in”; very clean; very private; fastidiously decorated; everything we needed. It was a very pleasant stay. If you’re sensitive to scents, you may ask your host to remove the plug-in air freshener. It wasn’t overwhelming, just kind of strong. Otherwise, it was a perfect cabin.
This property did not meet our expectations based on the descriptions in the listing. The couch was broken and incredibly uncomfortable. We had hoped for a cozy place where we could hang out, get some work done, and watch some final four basketball. Instead, we were uncomfortable enough we spent the day out and about in Hot Springs and had to find the final four games on our laptop because the channel was not available on the tv service provided. The bathroom includes a note to throw away the used toilet paper rather than flushing it and there is not central heat or air. More importantly, nothing about this location would be accessible for anyone with mobility issues or older people who struggle with balance. A wheelchair would not be able to navigate this property. We have had many VRBO experiences we love, including in rustic cabins. This one, however, was disappointing.
Loved the location. It’s time to upgrade the mattress and I’m still waiting on someone to contact me regarding the ants.
