I rented in short north for a weekend in June. The apartment was really cool and at first they were…read morereally responsive and we thought the toilet was fixed. The second night the toilet stopped working again. This was not because we did anything, but because, as we were informed, they were waiting on a part to fix it after we left. They offered a late check out but I declined because there was no working toilet. I ended up leaving to find a hotel for me and my friend to stay at due to the toilet not working. We were not informed that they were waiting on a part to fix it until it broke the second night we were there. It took a month and a half of texting and calling to get a manager on the phone to tell me that they would refund me 25% of my stay and that we waited too late in the day to tell them the toilet was broken the second night to have someone to fix it. I wished they let us know the first time they fixed it they were waiting on a part and I could have made other arrangements during the day and enjoyed the rest of my weekend with my out of town friend. Instead, I looked for a hotel in the middle of the night and spent way more money to make sure that I had a working toilet. The place was nice looking and in a very convenient spot. The customer service was lacking once something was wrong.

I booked this property through Hotels.com. The stay itself was fine, but the booking and payment…read moreprocess was not. From the beginning, the host repeatedly contacted me through calls, texts, and emails. Despite Hotels.com clearly advising guests not to make payments or handle communication outside of the platform, the host insisted that I pay a security deposit or a fifty nine dollar waiver in place of a three hundred dollar deposit through external links. This was required before check in. I also received a large number of promotional and reminder emails even after my booking was already confirmed, which made it feel like their system did not properly track reservations. Their intake form collected guest count, adult names, and vehicle information. I entered everything accurately. There is no clear disclosure anywhere about extra fees for unregistered guests. Despite this, after checkout the host attempted to charge my card for additional guest fees. The charge was eventually taken without my authorization, which forced me to file a dispute with my bank. The property is legitimate and the stay itself was not the issue. The issue was the off platform payment pressure, confusing processes, and an unauthorized charge after the stay ended. The way this was handled feels unethical and very sketchy. I would not recommend booking here.

My initial inquiry to Nice'N'Homes occurred through Furnished Finders, as I was relocating to…read moreColumbus for a summer contract. Pri was exceptionally responsive and we were able to complete a virtual walk through of the property before any commitment was made. The virtual walk through went very well and I sent over the deposit to hold the property. However, a week before my arrival I was notified that my property was not available due to a pipe bursting and the water supply being shut off to the property. Pri informed me that he may have another unit available, but it was a bit smaller and he was experiencing issues replacing some of the furniture due to the previous tenant not appropriately maintaining the property. Pri assured me that the property was being professionally cleaned and would be ready for my arrival. Upon my arrival, I discovered this to be furthest from the truth. Immediately upon opening the door I was hit with a pungent smell that assaulted my senses. As I continued to walk around the unit, the disappointment prevailed. The entire unit was filthy and required a substantial amount of cleaning. When I brought my concerns to Pri's attention, he increased the volume of his voice and wanted to refund what I had paid. I asked Pri if we were able to have a cleaner revisit the unit and requested that he cover the one night stay at a hotel. He went on to agree to the one night stay, but later changed his mind stating 'he wasn't running a charity and he could not afford to house me for three months.' He continued to state that it was obvious he couldn't meet my 'level of cleanliness'. At this point, I did not have the time to find another long-term solution and agreed to clean the unit myself, along side my Aunt. After spending $1200 we purchased cleaning supplies including a vacuum, mop, cleaning products, new linens, and a small steam cleaner. We then spent 3 hours cleaning the unit. This cleaning included mopping the floors, cleaning the baseboards, washing walls, and more. It became evident that an animal had soiled the carpeting on the stairs and they needed a deep cleaning. The next day I rented a carpet cleaner from Lowe's, as we soon discovered the small steam cleaner previously purchased wasn't going to sufficiently clean the stairs. I then steam-cleaned the stairs twice with the rented carpet cleaner, which did not resolve the rancid animal smell. The couch was also in disarray, as the sides of the couch were destroyed by a cat and there were cigarette burns on the top of the couch. I removed the couch cushions to wash them and steam cleaned the entire couch. After three days of being hopeful, it became evident that this unit was not livable as the pungent smell continued to permeate throughout the unit. I notified Pri that I was going to vacate the property early and requested that he refund my rent, but did agree to allow him to keep the deposit. This is a warning to anyone who considers utilizing their services in the Columbus area. May the odds be forever in your favor.

Additionally, the house is in close proximity to downtown Columbus, large Hospital networks, and is within walking distance to Franklin Park Conservatory and the newly developed East Market at the Trolley District.

When I first saw this experience on someone's Instagram page, I was instantly intrigued. My husband…read moreand I decided to try the Hillsboro location, and were really excited to be some of the first people who experienced the new Treasure Island suite. The location isn't hard to find, but remember you're looking for a house, not a traditional hotel. Check-in was a breeze and from the moment you enter the suite, you are plunged into what I can only describe as a romantic escape room. I don't want to give away too many things, because half of the fun is discovering all that your suite has to offer. However, I will say that you will not be disappointed if you love mysteries and grew up on choose your own adventure books and Scooby Doo. In addition to all of the fun things, the room has to offer, details have been meticulously, thought of, from plush robes to snacks. You never really have to leave the room if you don't want to. We did decide to take a break about halfway through to enjoy a restaurant in the area, which was another bit of nostalgia, because I had not seen a Ponderosa buffet since I was a kid. Two things to note to make your stay better. First, take advantage of the full-time you have the room. This is one place that you want to arrive as soon as check-in is available at 5PM and check out at the very last minute 11AM so you can really enjoy everything. Next, even if you are really moving quickly the experience takes 3 to 4 hours, so be prepared for that. You can definitely move at your own pace, but just know there's a lot to uncover. Overall, this place is a gem. I would absolutely return and try a different adventure, but honestly Treasure Island was so much fun I would do it again.

When entering our room it felt like we were the only ones in the whole place. The only reason we knew other people were there is because we saw cars out front and could hear people talking from the shared staircase. Book a room. You will not be disappointed.
