Very very nice
The listing said there were two bathrooms in unit 1, but there was only one. No big deal. The unit itself is gorgeous, and the yard and neighborhood is relaxing and quiet. I loved the office and the chair was super comfortable. Not sure how the thermostat was supposed to work and it was HOT in there as it was 95 in Portland that day. But the fan in the closet was a nice touch. It made sleeping bearable. I’ll totally stay here again if I can when I’m in Portland next.

Hello Phillip Thank you for taking the time to review your stay! I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed the unit, the comfort of the office chair, and the peaceful neighborhood. I apologize for any confusion regarding the bathrooms; our unit does indeed have two bathrooms, one with a bathtub and another with a shower located in the main bedroom. It seems there might have been a misunderstanding, and I'm here to help clarify any details for future visits. All the pictures show that, Looking forward to welcoming you again soon!

Greate quiet place to stay with a small group.
My family enjoyed the stay, the owner was very prompt in adding a travel crib for me. He went out of his way to bring it over extremely quickly after i inquired about it. The rental is setup as a duplex, and the two units do bring some unknowns. My family enjoyed the natural light from the windows and the large kitchen area. We did find the single couch too small for our family of four and we missed not having a kitchen table to eat at.

Super Clean Duplex Unit
The property is great - everything is clean and brand new looking, and the property is quiet and well set back from the road. Nitpicks: the listing isn't transparent about the fact this is one unit of a duplex. The neighbors were fairly quiet, but you do share a wall and the yard. Also, the thermostat control is ony via communication with the owner. Otherwise, wonderful!

Overall nice place, but inaccurate listing and ghosted by property owner
When booking our trip we categorized our search for "whole home," as we did not want to have any share walls or properties. We were traveling with friends and an infant, so we wanted privacy and quiet for ourselves, as well as not wanting to disturb any potential neighbors or shared tenants. Once the place was booked, we were notified that there were unit numbers associated with the rental. I asked the property owner about this, and was assured that this was a whole home. However, when we arrived we quickly realized that it was a shared home, split by a, albeit closed, wall. Fortunately, no one was staying in the other unit so we still enjoyed privacy. However, someone did show up, unannounced, to blow leaves off the roof. Which felt like a violation of privacy in our eyes. Initially, the owner was efficient and informative with his communication. However, at night the temperature in the house became quite cold. We had our infant sleeping in our room and the room got to 65 degrees, far too cold. We contacted the owner about whether there was a thermostat in the unit -- No response. We contacted the owner again (after reading a review stating the thermostat was controlled by the owner's phone), asking if it was possible to up the temperature a couple of degrees for our child. Reiterating that we were not wanting to blast the heat by any means, but it was winter and quite cold - Again, completed ghosted for the remainder of our stay. Enjoyed the house itself, and area.

Dear Aaron, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback about your stay at our property. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed the house and the area, and we appreciate the opportunity to address the concerns you've raised. Firstly, we want to clarify the privacy and structure of our property. Our listing is marketed as an "entire home" because we offer complete privacy to our guests, with no shared indoor spaces. The property includes two separate units, each with its own private entrance and amenities, designed to ensure privacy for our guests. We understand the importance of privacy, especially when traveling with friends and infants, and we apologize for any confusion regarding the property's structure. Regarding the gardener's visit, we aim to maintain the property in top condition for our guests, which includes regular maintenance such as leaf blowing. We assure you that the gardener was instructed not to disturb the privacy of our guests and to stay clear of the area you were occupying. We apologize if this made you feel your privacy was compromised, Lastly, we note your concern about the occupancy. Our house rules do state the maximum occupancy to ensure the comfort and safety of our guests, and we apologize if this was not made clear. We will take steps to ensure our communication on this matter is more explicit in our listing and correspondence. Sincerely, Daniel

Clean, but not advertised correctly
We appreciated the clean house and early check-in. The problem was the house was not advertised correctly. There was no place for our adult son to sleep. The listing was corrected the day we checked out. There is no thermostat control in the house. It was too hot when we were sleeping and cold during the day. Portland was experiencing colder than normal temps. We called the host to locate the thermostat and that’s when he told us that he controlled it. I feel this is a big inconvenience and should have been noted in the listing.

Dear Ashlyn Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback on your stay at our property. I understand your concerns and would like to address them directly. Regarding the sofa issue, I recall our communication where I informed you about replacing the couch with a larger sofa, to which you responded positively. " Great Thank you" I am sorry to hear that despite this effort to accommodate your needs, there were still aspects of your stay that did not meet your expectations. On the matter of the refund, I sought guidance from VRBO and, based on the facts of the situation, I was advised that a refund was not required under our agreement and VRBO's policies. This decision was made in accordance with the terms of the booking and was not meant to cause any inconvenience or dissatisfaction on your part. I would like to mention that I am recognized as a Premier Host on VRBO, an achievement that reflects my relentless commitment to providing outstanding experiences for my guests. This status is a testament to my dedication to ensuring high standards of service and accommodation. Sincerely, Daniel Tupayachi

Beds
The place was beautiful. It was clean and spacious. I wasn't sure if they supplied garbage bags, laundry soap, etc, (as there were empty bottles etc.), so I did purchase my own. There was food in the refrigerator that wasn't ours which tells me the cleaning service isn't doing their job. I would not expect to open a fridge any where (accept my own) and find food from previous renters. I would give this place a 5 star rating if not for the beds. The queen was hard as a rock and the double was a wee bit softer. We were exhausted from lack of sleep. I would gladly recommend this VRBO to others but because of the beds, I don't feel it would be fair.

Dear Ann, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback regarding your recent stay at our VRBO property. We truly appreciate your input, as it helps us continually improve the guest experience. We're delighted to hear that you found the place beautiful, clean, and spacious. We strive to maintain a high standard of cleanliness, and your observations help us identify areas where we can enhance our services. Regarding the supplies, we do provide essentials such as hand soap, conditioner, and shampoo, as you mentioned. However, you are correct that we don't advertise laundry soap as part of our amenities. Nevertheless, we do keep some laundry soap available for our guests' convenience. The food items in the refrigerator were left as a small gesture for our guests, and we apologize if this caused any confusion. We'll make sure to communicate this more clearly in the future to avoid any misunderstandings. We appreciate your feedback regarding the beds. We understand that the comfort of our guests is paramount, and we apologize that you did not find the mattresses to your liking. We will certainly take your comments into consideration and explore options for improving the sleeping arrangements in the future. Now, we also want to address the issue with the parking and the garden lights. We are deeply disappointed to learn that your were parking in the walkway instead of the designated parking spot despite clear instructions on the designated parking spot, resulted in damage to our garden lights. We value the safety and consideration for our property and all guests. While we appreciate the $20 compensation, it's important to remember that it's not just about the money; it's about being mindful of the property and other guests' experiences, I hope another future host won't face issues like this, would not be fair. We will take your feedback to heart and work to ensure a smoother and more enjoyable experience for all future guests. Thank you for choosing our VRBO property, and we wish you safe travels in your future adventures. Best regards, Daniel.

We had a great stay. I think this property is a new VRBO so the owner is still figuring some things out. A little sterile and in need of some supplies and warmth but super clean, nice quiet residential neighborhood, and easy parking and access. We wished there was some outdoor seating to enjoy the beautiful yard and maybe some more seating in the living area for movie watching. A pull out couch or futon in the office would allow more flexible sleeping arrangements. These are just suggestions, though. The property was exactly as described and we would definitely stay there again when visiting family in the area. Thank you!

Peaceful Location
What a lovely property! Situated on a quiet street in the town of Milwaukee with many families taking their weekend strolls- we certainly felt part of the community. Be sure to check out downtown Milwaukee farmers market and the food truck area. There are two VRBO units on the same property. We did feel we had plenty of privacy. There was a family staying next-door, but they kept very quiet and we never saw them. The only reason we knew they were there was because their car was in and out of the driveway. Our unit was modestly furnished, very clean, and spacious. Easy communication with our host. My only comment certainly not a complaint, was that the gardeners showed up on Saturday. It was a warm afternoon so we had opened the windows. The minute we saw the dust flying we closed them all fearing a dust storm on the beautiful hardwood floors. So just be aware gardeners arrive Saturday afternoon blowing dust everywhere. An enjoyable, relaxing stay. We will definitely be staying on our next visit to Milwaukee.

Extremely conscientious owner
We appreciated most of all Daniel’s efforts to communicate clearly with us. The property was clean and suited our needs. I would suggest adding a kitchen sink in the kitchen “counter” area, or at the very least replacing the bathroom faucet with a taller one so that there is more than a few inches between tap and sink. The bedroom upstairs was an adventure, but home was snug, quiet, clean, and cozy.

We loved the house it was very clean, updated and overall nice.
We were probably only the 2nd family to stay here and so there are a few things that could be improved on but nothing that made us say "why did we pay for this?" The property owner was very nice he rushed over to make sure the heat was working when I had messaged him about it being cold. Which by the way just message him he can adjust the temperature from his phone don't look for the thermostat lol. There needs to be a few more window coverings in my opinion. But overall it was in great shape in a nice area and if in the area we would defiently stay again.

Great for the Price!
We assumed we were the first tenants to rent this property. The owner was very accommodating and kind! It seemed as though this space was just renovated so we noted some small changes that would make it an “A+” stay for the future renters: 1. The queen bed was extremely firm and uncomfortable (a mattress pad would be much better to add on, as it was hard to sleep in) 2. There was a strong lack of utensils and cooking materials (no wine opener, only a few dish washing pods, no trash bags, only three forks) 3. There was a t.v but no living room space.. we had to rearrange the furniture to have the couch in front of the t.v (we thought it might be nice to have the t.v in the office space, making a cozy media room) 4. The couch/ fouton was very hard and uncomfortable, a sectional in the office space would be super cute! 5. There was no dining table (that could be a lovely add on for where the t.v currently is) Overall we were pleased with the price and property, itself! We said we would give it a “B” for the improvements listed above. Our family left happy and pleased with the owners communication.
