The house could have been a little cleaner, there was ants (which they did have traps for) and there was dishes from the previous stay in the drying rack. It is an older beach house so there is a musty smell, but thatâs to be expected to an extent. The couch had stains on it and was very worn in. The location of the house was great however, and the ease of access was there.
Les points forts : Communication, emplacement, exactitude de lâannonce
Unfortunately newly installed door lock was non operable
Couldnât enter property first night due to faulty door lock. Canât pick your neighbors but their pick of controlled substances was marijuana for sure. House is nice and good location, owner helped remedy the door issue the next day.
We arrived with excellent communications from the host about getting in, timing and reminder to bring our own sheets and towels. The space was very clean and kitchen was modern. While bedrooms were small, the older home had all that we needed. Thank you!!
Host was nice enough to let us arrive early once place was cleaned.
Parking was not bad and on the street. Beach tags would have been helpful but not a big deal.
We were in Ocean City for a tournament. It was close to everything. Property has the minimum- which was ok because we were rarely there. Could use a deep cleaning, but was 'surface clean' and rooms had beds and met their need- nothing extra. This is a bottom floor so you will hear tenants upstairs. Back window is broken and there was not a hot tub.
This is my first unhappy review with VRBO. On a positive note, Tom was very willing to communicate when I had questions. However, there were several dislikes regarding our stay.
Gas grill was a portable propane tabletop grill which was only large enough to cook 2 burgers at a time. There were ants in the kitchen and living room despite there being ant traps in both. The bathroom was not vented. Some outlets were not usable. The door with the cleaning supplies and home repair tools was unlocked making it accessible to all guests. I will not stay here again.
guests. I paid less to stay here butquesbooking.
Got to the house for just a weekend stay. Someone had been sleeping in the bed. Sheets and comforter were on the bed but slept in. Mind you we were to bring our own towels and sheets. Shower and sink were dirty and someone left their dirty towel. Back door glass is broken. There was no trash can outside of the house to dispose of trash so we had to take the trash with us. I donât like giving bad reviews but someone should have checked the house before guests arrived.
Overall the place was nice. I did a lot of meals at the house and the kitchen was adequately stocked. I only found out a day or 2 before the trip that there were no linens or towels. That would have been helpful to know in the listing. The amenities in general were pretty bare but ok if planned accordingly. It's just more things to pack in an already packed car. It was within a 3 block distance to the beach but the blocks were very long. Be prepared to do a lot of walking but the neighbor hoods and houses are beautiful! Decent for the price.
We found it to be a little unhygienic. There were ants in the kitchen; on the counter, table and floor. The pillows were brown and flat like they have been in use for 20 years. The beds were not beds, but cots. And the bedspreads just felt dirty, so we washed them before using. There were also dirty dishes in the dishwasher when we got there. We did not bring any dishwasher pods so we just left them in there. Thereâs something that looked like it was Blood or dirt on the wall⊠Not really sure. And the couch was very, very worn in. Which meant there was no comfortable place to sit. None of the rooms had carpet in it⊠Which is fine, that is on me for not noticing that in the pictures. However, I would not recommend it for someone with children that like to sit on the floor and play. Two of the blinds in the kitchen were broken. All the dishes were also mismatched and just random things. Not real dish ware. There were holes in the blinds in the living room. The dryer mustâve been from 1970 and did not catch lint properly. All the air vents were extremely dirty. There were towels from previous guests hanging around. It seems like there was no cleanup after the previous stay. Which makes me wonder what my cleaning fee was all about?
Great location as it is within a short walk to the beach, boardwalk, shops, and restaurants. Neighborhood was clean, felt safe and had parking in a reasonable distance. Stay could be improved by upgrading mattresses and including linens/towels. Host had quick reply to communications.
We rented for the weekend of the OC Half for a mini getaway as well. Weather may not have cooperated often but we had a pleasant time when inside as a family! The house was perfect for us when we had to be inside for longer than planned periods. Loved the close distance to everything and away from all popular areas to provide relaxing areas.
Living room, kitchen and bathroom are great in size. Both bedrooms are a little tight. I Scrubbed both living room and kitchen floors because my feet kept turning black. House is on a slant and bathroom door is hard to close. Thankful for ceiling fans in every room. Kitchen is fully equipped with everything needed.
We had a great time! The rental was very clean, and we had plenty of space for my wife and myself and our 3 kids. Itâs a few blocks away from the beach but nothing a wagon and a little planning canât handle. Itâs only a few blocks from the downtown area on Asbury with all the shops, very close to the local skatepark, and only a few blocks from the beach. The owner Tom was very nice, and easy to work with, I would recommend this place to anyone.
This place had a lot of wonderful reviews online, which is why I booked this house to stay at with my husband, our 4 year old, and another couple with their 18 month old. Itâs in a nice location with about a 1/2 mile walk to get to wonderland and surrounding attractions. The first floors foundation is entirely slanted, with our sons falling and tripping a majority of the time. The bathroom door would not close without heavy pushing, and the bedroom doors dragged on the floor. The place was âcleanedâ before we got there, but then our feet turned black with debris walking from the living room to the kitchen. The washer and dryer is very loud, so do not use them when you have a sleeping baby next door in the bedroom. Overall, we feel the house was liveable.
Everything you need to be comfortable. 5 min walk to beach. Close enough for active people. Loved the neighborhood because it was the historic district. Away from the hustle and bustle but close to the boards and beach. Very clean. Newer. Thomas communicated promptly and responded to everything I asked. I did not have a prob with the door code. Thanks for sharing your property with our family! We had a fun relaxing weekend!
Property was easy to find and in a relatively quiet section. Easy 3 block walk to the beach. All the amenities were there and functioning. House was neat and organized. Lock box was tricky for us. We definitely needed the step by step instructions on using all the remotes! Lots of streaming options. We enjoyed our stay. Thanks Tom!
