The house was cute & clean. Easy check-in, allowed to do so early, beds very comfortable & lots of towels/etc. The layout was open & airy. Great back yard; bring some old shoes as the yard is mostly dirt (feet got super dirty 1st day). The porch & rocking chairs, great!
We had 2 ISSUES. The host was VERY quick to respond which is great but “solutions” inadequate…
1) kitchen faucet was a trickle. Michael replied he’d have to look into it. No one came out to look at it- I tried the valves under the sink w/no luck. Had to wash all thanksgiving dishes by hand because the dishwasher then didn’t work due to the water pressure- all other H2O pressure was good. 2) Thursday night/Friday, it got cold; the furnace didn’t work. Michael sent out a maintenance couple: the man couldn’t understand English & his wife could barely understand/speak it to translate to her husband. The couple wound up turning back on the thermostat - DIDN’T CHECK THE FURNACE UNIT, and going to the backyard shed to bring us 2 small space heaters. It was about 65 in the house for the remainder of our stay. I feel the furnace should have been checked prior to our arrival since it’s the first Charleston cold snap. Some other suggestions: grown-up games/cards, scissors, more sturdy backyard furniture, new fire pit (bottom is mostly rusted out). Since it’s a new listing hopefully there will be some improvements. The area is Dorchester and rough at this time.
