Noce stay

We had a nice stay while visiting our son at AOF. There were a couple of small issues which the owner remedied IMMEDIATELY. Things happen in life which are unforeseen, we appreciated the owner jumping on the issues quickly.

Shared house

This is not a private house. It’s an apartment which was not advertised. They do not provide refunds for false listing .

“Stay” away. Also note this is a duplex with upstairs neighbors that may be nocturnal.

Arrived at 3:50pm (check in at 3:00 according to confirmation) after a 13 hour drive. Both beds not made, dish washer still running like someone just left. Emailed for owner to call asap. Received call within a few minutes from property management. Told them beds were not made and no Keurig like was promised would be there. Was then told that check in time isn’t til 4:00 pm and last guests checked out “late”. We left property to go to grocery store. Noticed garage that is attached to home has no door, no roof and a cease and desist order attached to hanging live wires. Also side entrance to kitchen is in wide open garage. Went to grocery store, came back and beds were at least made. Was instructed that the keurig was an oversight and would bring one back. Then noticed holes in walls and ceiling that we also informed management person of. Noticed the property has one smoke detector just above fire place that was not working due to very old/expired battery and found another in one of the bed rooms. Told management team of this, got an excuse and was told they would bring one but never did. At least in morning the next day a new keurig coffee maker was left on outside table. Had also let them know unit had no wash clothes at all and they instructed they would bring some with coffee maker. Instead they left 2 rolls of paper towels. We went to nearby store to purchase some wash cloths. This is a duplex with an upstairs unit that contained renters that were up most of night..

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
My name is Alexander, and I am a young sailor in the United States Navy. I enjoy traveling, surfing, and cool architecture. I love being a host because it gives me the opportunity to make a real impact in people’s lives. Housing can too often be unaffordable and burdened by uncertainty. My mission through hosting is to make sure that is not the case. I always try to offer affordable and fun housing, making your getaway as seamless and enjoyable as possible-because that is what you deserve and what I love to do!

Why they chose this property

This classic New England neighborhood is iconic to Connecticut. Located around the corner from the architecturally stunning private preparatory Avon Old Farms School. In 1908, when my ancestors migrated to America from Italy, they, like many Italian Americans passing through Ellis Island, Chose Avon, Connecticut to call home. At the time, Avon had a one room schoolhouse where my family was educated, and which still exists as a historical monument today. Avon has progressed from a town filled with tobacco farms, bootleggers and dirt roads to a sleek, cosmopolitan community that has maintained ties with the past. It offers golf courses, a recreational 11-mile-long bike trail, miles of hiking trails and shopping from locally owned small boutiques to the nation’s largest franchise operations. My home was built in 1800 during the pre-automobile when everything was walkable, so the home is conveniently situated walkable to old Avon village, coffee shops, dining, and the town’s still thriving Italian American Club. Take a step back in time and treat yourself to life in a home built for the early Avon leaders!
