Cozy Urban Escape. Piqua, Ohio

The home was dirty, the house looked nothing like the photos. The floors are so uneven the flooring was falling apart. The beds were really hard and the legs kept falling off. The inside was really hot especially upstairs. The bathroom had mold and the shower/tub combo felt like it was going to fall through the floor. The ceiling tile was also falling out of the ceiling.

We were extremely disappointed with this property and ultimately could not stay. Upon arrival, we noticed a very strong odor throughout the home that smelled like mold and mildew. We also found several cleanliness and maintenance concerns that, in our opinion, were not reflected in the listing photos, including gaps in the trim and flooring, dirty or poorly maintained walls, and an unpleasant odor coming from the upstairs staircase.The most concerning issue was the bedroom where my pregnant daughter and her one-year-old child were supposed to sleep. We found several spiders in the room, and within minutes my daughter began feeling stuffy and uncomfortable. Given her pregnancy and the fact that we had a young child with us, we did not feel comfortable taking any chances with their health or safety, so we made the difficult decision to leave.We had to find alternative lodging at the last minute, which resulted in additional unexpected expenses and significant stress, especially since we were in town for a wedding the following day. We immediately contacted the host and then Vrbo and requested a full refund, but we have not received one. We understand that Vrbo is investigating and that the host may conduct testing. We are simply reporting what we personally experienced during our brief time at the property.Unfortunately, based on the condition, odor, cleanliness concerns, and overall experience, we cannot recommend this property to other guests.

Great location as it pertains to close proximity of restaurants and other gathering spaces, such as the amphitheater downtown. The pictures are a little deceiving as they make the house look much newer than it is. The upstairs bathroom is lacking in table top space for toiletries, and there were exposed wires (albeit out of reach !) in one of the bedroom ceilings from where a smoke detector should be. All that said, the house was clean, in a mostly quiet, family dominated neighborhood, and was a decent value for the price. The Host was also a solid communicator, which is always a plus!

Clean and neat. Pics as advertised.

Great place for the money , the host was great and the house cozy and accommodating. Pet friendly !
