Decent Stay

The overall stay was ok but nothing special. We had a couple of issues but, to be fair I did not reach out to the host because I knew these things were not going to be solved during our stay. The first is the back yard. The listing stated it was a fenced in backyard but I guess due to construction, a big chunk of it was missing. This was a huge inconvenience being that we picked this property mostly to be able to accommodate our dog but we were not even able to let him go potty in the back without a leash. The second was the guest shower. The sliding doors to the shower were broken and or not installed correctly therefore they would not shut all the way leaving a huge gap for water to splash out. We were restricted to sharing one shower. The third was the driveway. The post did state that it was a shared driveway but not that it was only for 1 vehicle. I was able to park on the street when another guest was there which wasn’t a big deal but multiple times, we got the the house and the driveway was blocked by other cars, not sure if it was neighbors or workers of all of the construction going on around us. There was a lot of good things about the house but not enough to look past all of the other inconveniences.
