Could be a great vacation rental with lots of work
The property could be really nice, however, it was not very clean, there was no hot water in the shower, the advertisement said it had central heat and air, and when we texted the owner to ask how to turn on the heat she said the HVAC wasn't being installed for another week or so. The listing also claimed to have a sleeper sofa in the living room but it did not. Lastly, and most importantly, the owners home is connected to the rental via a door, which has no lock on the rental side and at one point, when we complained about no hot water, the owner just opened the door to give us an update and just yelled, "hello, hello", without knocking or coming to the front door! We were very uncomfortable after that, knowing that they could/would enter our space at any time without any prior notice.
