Not Fancy, Working Class Neighborhood
I would not stay here again.
DEPOSIT:
The expensive deposit hasn’t been returned (13 days..)
Cleanliness:
Some dirty dishes. Uncleaned floor. Awful initial smell. Old furniture.
VRBO:
Support was frustrating, difficult & disappointing.
Neighbors:
Quiet. Average age: ~40 years old.
Noise:
You can hear every spoken word when people are talking as they pass bedroom which wasn’t often.
Also, in PHX airport landing flight path. They are ~1,000 feet up but still audible
Door Code-Lock is noisy
Host:
responsive. I fixed several things around the condo (touch up painting; raised & tightened shower curtain rod; disassembled and cleaned the vacuum cleaner with compressed air - vacuumed everything; UNCLOGGED the bathtub drain that had STANDING WATER; scrubbed kitchen sink & filthy coffee maker, literally left the condo in better shape than I found it and didn’t feel any gratitude from host
Also, several days before checking out she asked if her “counter top guy” could stop by for “measurements” which felt more like a disguised inspection. I don’t believe she will install “granite” in this place. It’s peak demand during December-March so it’s a silly time to be doing upgrades… Also, this guy, who also speaks Italian, is probably her husband. He started the dishwasher before leaving which was also suspicious..
