Place was advertised as having 6 beds and a sleeper sofa. Upon arriving, we found 5 beds and the sofa. Problematic for sure, but the worst part was the host's response. It started with 'no, that's not the way it is advertised', and then went to 'we tossed that bed a long time ago and you wouldn't like it' and ended with 'I have my own problems'. I screen shot the listing...we're on pretty firm ground here. I'll note that the original listing stated that Bdr #1 has a King and a Twin roll away bed; it has since been changed to "sleep/sofa futon". So unless they've put one in there in the past 3 days, that's incorrect too. No couch, etc, in any of the rooms. To answer the host's question as to why it was a big deal; grown adults didn't pay to stay in a house to sleep with people they aren't married to.
I realize when I'm stuck between rocks..wasn't much we could do. Disappointed and completely dismayed by the response, but as other reviewers have stated, there aren't alot of options in McCall at the last minute. Add to that, when we booked the place, there were several emails reference the parking. I was advised that there was ample parking on the road in front of the house. I guess I should have asked for further clarification; it's about a 400' walk up a steep hill to get to the road. Not a place to leave a couple of trailers with 100k of toys and equipment in each. The road was clear as advertised. Very tight.
House is decent. The kitchen is tiny, but it is well stocked. Good supply of cooking gear, dishes, utensils, etc. BBQ flames...grate is just rotted out, an easy fix. If your a cook, you'll understand how traveling to numerous homes can be a challenge; this one was easy to work with.
Thermometers had a difficult time keeping an even temp and we had no less than 7 burned out bulbs..kinda dim. Funniest part was the cleaning...apparently no one looks up. We have fewer dust webs in our attics I think. Basic cleanliness appeared decent, but when the obvious is looked past, it gives one pause, as in, is it really clean?
Good supply of towels, garbage bags, and the living room, albeit small, is comfortable.
To the host; responding too me that you have a great rating didn't help solve the problem. It was clear to us that somehow this was our problem/fault, but the fact that you listed the arrangements specifically is on you, not those of us that can read and count. It was insulting and you should be embarrassed.
