The lock when we got there had to be replaced which was annoying after waiting all day and not getting early checking. Constantly had to have the dishwasher repaired until they decided to get a new on ena then still needed repairs. Plumbing/flushing issue with one of the toilets, the vacuum didn’t work either. Rosanna was very responsive and available to assist with these issues but ideally these things would’ve been all done before we got there and not constantly calling them. If these issues didn’t happen I would give it a higher rating

We stayed at Walking on Sunshine for a few days while on a work trip. The location was great and the home was in a quiet neighborhood. The rooms were comfortable and it was nice having a bathroom in each room. One of the main reasons we rented the home was for the the sauna. However, when we arrived we realized that the sauna was not in working condition. Also we spotted dead roaches a couple of mornings. I realize that it is a newer property listing and it takes some time to work all the kinks out. Hopefully that happens since it is a nice home. Pros: Nice home. Great location. Comfortable beds. Good Internet. Great outdoor space. Bathrooms in each room. Cons: Sauna did not work. Basic amenities like coffee pods missing. Couple of roaches seen during stay.
