Overall, the stay was alright. The check-in and out was smooth, and the VRBO was fully equipped with kitchen appliances, toiletries, linens etc. The place was fine, located in a great neighborhood and was very spacious. However, I felt that the VRBO hosts were a little hands-off - most messages were automated, and not personalized, and there were a couple problems I messaged them about that weren’t resolved or addressed. For example, the first day in the VRBO was very hot, and they offered to install a second unit, which I agreed to. However, they never followed up with the offer - the place did cool down afterwards, but I never heard back about the second unit. I also found a dead roach in the bed on my second day, which I messaged the hosts about, and they offered to send someone with bug spray - and then never followed up on this offer either. However, at the end of my stay, I accidentally got locked out of the place, and the hosts were helpful in helping me get back in. Overall, it was a decent stay which could’ve been improved by better host-tenant communication.
