Pets were a specific NO on the listing. However, when drying off with the "clean" towels after a shower, we all had pet hair on our bodies. When using the blanket in the living room, we had pet hair on our clothes. Smoking was a BIG no on the listing. Not a problem as none of the four of us smoke. However, when opening the cabinet in the bathroom to get a "clean" wash cloth or bath towel, the smell of smoke was VERY present. Not impressive. There were no outside lights. We walked into town for dinner and wanted to have a light on when we returned... there were no working outside lights and no help was offered when the host was contacted.
