Enjoyed location it was quiet. The property needed to be groomed grass cut. Owner needs to get new beds even teen boys did not sleep in bed rather sleep on floor. Also needs a nice cleaning in kitchen area.

Overall impression of house was it was clean and neat. Neighborhood was quiet and felt safe; generally good central location for visiting different sites around Dayton. There are some small maintenance tasks that would make the place more pleasant for the guests, such as fixing the overhead light in the single bedroom and

Only issue I had was that there were no face rags available and when I spoke with the property manager she just told me to just maybe go to the store and buy some, which was an unacceptable response. We were there for my fathers funeral and were getting packed to head back home and were short on time...I actually was already undressed with the shower on so I think she shouldve have accomodated since my booking was supposed to come with face rags. Very inconsiderate response. Beds not the most comfy either

Cannot give a review, because we ended not staying. A/C went out thus making us find another venue and pay a lot more....

Foam mattress too soft and uncomfortable and not able to get the house cool enough. But. Have these concerns answered, and yes we would consider it in the future.

Easy, cute place. The only things I didn't love was the location was not as nice as I expected and the house had a strange smell. Everything else was easy and comfortable.

Our stay was fine. The only concerns or problems we have was the fact there weren’t enough towels for a two day stay. I don’t know if that is typical to only have a day’s worth of towels. Then Saturday afternoon the furnace quit and the host didn’t respond to my message. I had to call her. We just decided to drive home. So, we made the 4.5 hour trip back home at 7:30 PM. I sincerely home we are refunded our second night like the host she would do.

This house was so cute and perfect for our weekend visiting UD. Super clean! A little hard to find in the dark as the house numbers are not easy to see (located on the house). but it's next door to the palm tree garden house! Definitely would stay again!

Central location to many Dayton staples. A turn of the century house in an older blue collar neighborhood which seemed safe enough. The things that need to be improved upon. Disclose Ring camera in listing, this is an invasion of privacy and needs to be disclosed. If you have any injuries this house is not meant for you. The beds offer no support, 2 very uncomfortable spring filled mattresses, and an older sunken in Tempur-Pedic like heat sponge. The sheets and comforter are scratchy, pilled polyester, not breathable material. The basement stairs are treacherously steep. A washer and dryer are provided in the musty, water damaged, cobwebbed, and bug filled basement. The dryer sounds like thunder, that it's going to fall apart, after 70min of drying the clothing was still damp. There's a dehumidifier that runs constantly in the basement to help with the dampness. It was full our 2nd night. The utility sink doesn't have any pipes, the dehumidifier should be emptying in the floor drain. There are tiny ants, crickets, and ant traps all over the house. All corners of the house and basement need to be cleaned, on top of the refrigerator, and inside the oven are dirty. Silverware and dishes felt greasy. Front right stove burner takes forever to heat up. Leaky faucet handles in the tub, poor water pressure, and the it doesn't drain quickly. The tub needs to be replaced with a shower, it's the original. The tiles on the wall in the tub have been painted and taped over, not properly sealed to prevent leaks. Very small, thin towels and not enough provided to get through a week's stay or even extra sheets if we wanted to blow up the air mattress in the closet to try instead of the beds. There are very few electrical outlets that are faulty (the cords fall out). The couch has a low back, and no neck/head support. I would suggest recliner couches. The carpet is dingy, with strategically placed runners to cover up stains in the living/dining room, needs to be cleaned or ripped out. No screens to open the old windows. Soffit and aluminum siding are falling off the side of the house. A weed garden taking over the entire front of the house. The Wifi is intermittent, interrupts streaming service, and doesn't stay connected.
Had I been at a hotel I would have checked out after the first night, but I was too worried I would not receive a full refund. A little cleaning/upgrading would provide the benefits of a true home away from home feel. I wish the owners success.

Greatful 4 a place 2 rest our heads after a long few days of driving...however, main rugs were dirty, @ 8 pm lawn maintenance was happening outside this home, & bathroom grout work needs redoing.

The house was easy to find, very cute and clean! The only somewhat negative was the tub/shower not as updated as expected per the listing. But it all worked great for what we needed - a hot shower and clean towels! Netflix was a great addition!

Comfortable beds. One of my friends with me said TV not set up for connecting to anything but I didn't personally try. Coffee maker not very clean. Ran water through it and had lots of coffee grounds. Then coffee was an empty container. So no coffee for us! Everything else very nice. Owner very quick to reply to questions.

This small house is rather humble, but more than adequate for a low-cost stay in Dayton for 1 or 2 people. The house was clean, reasonably furnished and centrally located. The neighborhood seemed safe. There was off street parking, laundry facilities, 2 furnished bedrooms, living room, dining room and kitchen with limited kitchen ware. The LR has a small desk that serves as a good work area. Owners were very responsive and friendly.

Small but functional
It's a small house, but just the right size for me. Everything was clean. It has easy access to getting around town. Quiet neighborhood. A great place.

Cute house in a nice neighborhood
The owners were very responsive during the entire process and were committed to making sure that we had a great stay. The property was very nice and clean.

Dayton Overnight
The property was clean and easy to check into. Bed very comfortable. It is a little basic in amenities commensurate with its price. A spruced-up, little 30's home. Good stove-top pots, but nothing to use in the oven except a cookie sheet. Forks and spoons, but no knives. It was really fine for an overnight, especially in COVID because of no-contact.

We were satisfied with the rental. We would gladly rent it again. However, it would be a good idea to clean the cold air return vent in the dining room and the ceiling fan blades, these features had a lot of accumulated dust. Also the bathroom towel rack is worn out. The flange on one side doesn't have enough material to hold it on no matter how tight you turn the set screw. Otherwise, things were clean and neat. There is a coffee pot but I do wish we had known there would be no coffee or filters provided. We could have brought some along. As a landlord I appreciate the quality of the flip. Good job.

Not too picky, but the queen foam bed was a disaster. As soon as we laid down, our rumps went to the floor and our heads and feet were high up...think V formation. We soon learned why as more slats in the bed kept falling out with any subtle movement. (we are normal size people too) We fixed it, but it kept happening through the night. Would have been laughable, but our son in the twin bed next to us has epilepsy and lack of sleep triggers seizures. He didn't sleep at all that night because his bed was actually on the floor and it was a very cheap mattress as well, plus the sound of paper thin slats falling out doesn't help either. We couldn't risk him not sleeping again, so had to cut our 4 night stay short and leave after one night to get back home to NC. Sadly we missed our son's college parent orientation and getting to tour the campus that we have yet to see (Covid canceled the tour we had set up before our son graduated). Mentioned the bed situation to owner, and absolutely no response after several days. She does not seem to care about her customers.

Nice little property. Had plenty of room for our group of 6. Good communication with the property manager. We had one issue that was taken care of right away. If your coming to the Dayton, Ohio area, this house is a bargain!
