Comfortable lodging convenient to downtown
Posted Jun. 20, 2024 on HomeAwayTo begin, the host, Angela, was so kind and responsive. Despite me having relatively insignificant issues (how to work the remote), she answered my texts quickly and informatively.
The attention to detail that Angela has to make the stay comfortable was amazing. The house was filled with amenities that few other owners consider.
I would definitely stay again.

Short and sweet visit
Posted Jun. 20, 2024 on HomeAwayWe stayed at this clean and quaint little property near the University of Nebraska-Lincoln for 2 nights with our family. We had a campfire on the first night, slept great on both nights, and cooked dinner at the VRBO both nights. Very easy to get to local restaurants via car. We travelled to U of N the HayMarket, and the John Breslow Ice Arena which all were under a 10 min drive. The home was clean and the water pressure was FANTASTIC! The bath tub was deep and wide and so nice for soak after a long day on your feet. The only thing I might change is adding a bit more seating in the living room on the first floor, though Not a deal breaker. Also the neighborhood looked a bit run down and sketchy. We decided not to go for walks in the evening. Inside the home, the decor was perfectly done. I loved the blue chairs and cabinets in the updated kitchen. Also the butterflies in the master bedroom were whimsical. If we come back to Lincoln, NE we will definitely re-visit this property.

Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback through a review, Sarah. I am glad you enjoyed your stay. I am sorry you felt unsafe in the neighborhood for your regular evening walks. I would suggest crossing south street and heading north for a walk from this property. You are on a bike path/street and will end up at a park or the Haymarket or railyard. I do wish the living room had more room for seating. I am unsure how to fix that issue but keep taking suggestions. If you have any please do message me!

Fall visit
Posted Oct. 17, 2023 on HomeAwayIt’s an older home but the upgrades make it a cute little place with charm. It is very well stocked with everything you need and may have forgotten and very clean. Conveniently located to everywhere. Great communication with owner.

Cute house...
Posted Aug. 9, 2023 on HomeAwayCute house in a nice location. Upon arrival the upstairs shower was inoperable - apparently since July, the downstairs bathroom sink was not cleaned and the toilet was not flushed, and there were spider webs and dead bugs on the stairwell ledge. The owner says that her goal is to have a 5 star property and be a premier owner. I hope a review like this one and the previous one grabs her attention.
She did give a small credit for our inconvenience.

I appreciate your review Scott. Your feedback is much appreciated and I am sorry for the inconvenience of the shower not working. I thought it was going to be fixed before your stay otherwise I would have warned you about it. Coincidentally it is being fixed today. (Day late and dollar short :( ) I spray the property for bugs every other month and sometimes we have a flawed housekeeper clean our property. It is not ideal for an overnight stay after driving for so long however I am glad that you appreciated the house and its location.

Flooded basement and a broken shower
Posted Jul. 14, 2023 on HomeAwayThe house is clean and well cared for. The kitchen is well appointed (pots, storage containers, spices, etc.) and there are lots of fun touches in the house. That said, the house is 100+ years old and has squeeky floors and doors. The street was mostly quiet, but the neighborhood is run down.
However, we were told about 3 hours before check in that the basement had flooded..."oh and one last thing", the upstairs shower didn't work. This forced us to shower in the basement that just flooded (separate area) and sleep in the office. We didn't have much choice but to stay, especially when we inquired with the host about the refund policy and she restated her 14-day cancellation policy. I felt a flooded basement and a broken shower should be an automatic refund upon request. She said she thought we would still be comfortable in the house. When we got there, we thought we could make due. We are in Lincoln for a reason and didn't have time to find alternate housing and try to get a refund. After a few days, the smell in the basement was too much to deal with and we were concerned about the health effects of what was causing the smell. We left a day early. She did refund some of our money for the "inconvenience".
The host was very nice about the situation and clearly cares about the property, but please make sure issues are fixed before you book!

I appreciate your honest feedback Jerilyn. While I did inform you as soon as I knew that there were problems with the house, I do apologize for the inconvenience it caused you. Although fans were placed in the basement, getting the carpets cleaned would have have helped with the smell. I should have suggested that while you were staying.
Carpets have been cleaned and I looked into the issue with the water damage further and it is being dealt with. Bathroom shower kit will need replaced however and I didn't see a way to do that while you were in the house without causing more inconvenience.
