I didn't expect to have to make my own bed
Usually I begin with the positives of my location, however, I want to be clear up front if you are considering this property. We arrived at 1:00 a.m. The key was in the lockbox as described, however the porch light was burned out so it was difficult to access it in the dark. After finding the bedrooms, we discovered that although the comforters had been pulled up, all of the beds were unmade. There were sheets left out for us to make the beds ourselves, but one of the queen beds had been left twin sheets. We located more sheets after digging through some messy/disorganized closets. The next morning we discovered the reason--apparently people who rent this property are expected to get up early on the day of check out and wash, dry and fold all the bedding they used. An "extra hour" is given to complete this process. Since our flight was out of Boston the morning we checked out, we would have had to been up and doing laundry by 4:00 a.m. in order to complete the task. Additionally, we were expected to complete most of the cleaning tasks such as vacuuming the rooms, sweeping the floors, etc. I do not mind cleaning up after myself when I stay in a VRBO, and I generally try to leave the place better than I found it, but if I had to guess, I would say the hosts are pocketing the cleaning fee and requesting the guests do all the cleaning.That being said, if you are looking for a house in the cape for a family gathering, this layout and location are wonderful.
