Horrible experience in this ramshackle shanty
I traveled across country with my girlfriend and her 16 year old son to attend my family's annual reunion on the Lake. We rented this cottage as a place merely to sleep at night, clean up in the morning, and have breakfast before spending full days at the reunion. Though exceedingly cramped, the place did have the main amenities claimed in the VRBO posting: beds, shower, toilet, small kitchen, small living room. However, the bathroom was ridiculous -- broken toilet seat, uncomfortably small shower, a sink with a window in front of it rather than a mirror.
I should have read the fine print in advance of signing the contract. Only after flying cross-country and getting in late in the day did we realize that we were supposed to bring our own towels, bedsheets and garbage bags. We borrowed from my family who hosted the reunion.
Other things that were missing or broken... There was no toilet paper in the place except a single, moldy-and-rotting roll under the bathroom sink. I contacted the caretaker and then bought TP at the nearby market. The caretaker had her mother deliver some rolls the next day.
The Keurig coffeemaker was broken. We discovered this only after we had gone shopping and bought creamer for the weekend. Then we had to walk to Dunkin Donuts for coffee every morning instead of making our own. I told the caretaker about the broken Keurig. Instead of replacing it, she merely said, "Interesting, it's been working all summer."
A terrible experience overall.
