The house had a broken window, and a bedroom with a combination lock which wouldn't open. The property owner/manager was non-responsive despite leaving several voicemail and text messages, as the broken window was a security issues plus we booked a 3 bedroom place as we needed 3 bedrooms. I had to call a locksmith who upon investigating said that lock was broken and had to be taken out. In addition, the gas range wouldn't turn on. It would let out gas but the flint action wouldn't spark to ignite the flame. The house was dirty all the way through. Looked like the cleaning crew did a rush job and basically did a lipstick on a pig job. Everything could have been resolved, however the owner/manager never responded. I would not recommend this place to anyone even if it was free. I spent hours on the phone with VRBO, only to be forwarded from department to department with no resolution.

This property was the worst short term rental I have ever been involved with. Before check in, the host was difficult to contact for arrival instructions. We then arrived at 4 pm (the time of check-in), and the cleaning crew was still there (we later learned that the cleaning crew did not show up until 3:20 pm based on the security camera footage). We left to let them complete the cleaning and returned after dinner around 7 pm. We found the house to be shockingly messy. The floors were completely disgusting, and had clearly not been cleaned. The sheets on one of the beds were visibly dirty and clearly not cleaned. There was a broken window upstairs. There were remnants of partying and mayhem scattered throughout the house. There were no cups or mugs to drink out of. Door hinges were broken, and handles smashed. This house is a disaster and should not be rented to anyone else until it is dealt with. It is a cheap spot in Berkeley, but unless you are high-schoolers looking for a place to party in and destroy, you should go elsewhere.

I was a little skeptical pulling up to the exterior but once the door was opened, we were happily surprised by the spacious interior, furnishings and layout of the place, especially the upstairs bedroom and sitting room. I would happily stay here again.
