We rented this property for the Thanksgiving holiday with the intention of having all our family fly in to celebrate Thanksgiving at the rental property. We told this to the property manager after booking.
Given the high rental fee, we expected the home to be adequately appointed to host family for meals, including Thanksgiving.
The kitchen did not even have hand soap, only a bottle of Dawn for cleaning dishes. There was no colander, no bowls except for four small plastic kid-size bowls, no serving plates or bowls, no wooden spoons, no spatulas, no baking pans, no napkins, no serving spoons, and no mixing bowls whatsoever. And the dinner and salad plates they had were not suffient for the numbers advertised as having capacity to host.
There wasn’t even sufficient toilet paper in the house. We had to go to our home and bring extra.
We had to go to our home and basically spend several hours packing up and transporting our kitchen to the rental home.
This home did not have a welcoming feel as evidenced by the cleaning lady, after we checked in, dropped a bag on the front porch with paper towels and non-dairy creamers.
We paid a lot of money for four days and had to transport our kitchen to the rental home in order to cook Thanksgiving for our family that flew in from around the country to be with us.
We reached out before the check in to ask if we could check in at 1pm instead if 4pm, in the event the house was not properly appointed, but we were told we could not because the cleaning lady could not be asked to come at a time convenient for us to do so.
