We were really excited to rent this property based on its looks from the outside and the location on Main Street. Upon entry it was pretty obvious that everything from the furnishings to the window covers were cheap. And when I say cheap, I mean probably all directly from China.
There were a lot of electrical issues throughout the house, it had a terrible odor, and just an overall bad vibe.
And to top it all off, the "owner" Mia doesn't even own the property! She's shadily renting it from someone else who doesn't even live in the state. I'm not sure about the legalities but she definitely overcharges for this place. You can find way better deals going through the many many other rental properties in Park City. Plus ones where I don't feel like I'm breaking the law being there.
Oh and the stairs. Don't even get me started on the stairs. They are such a pain in the butt having to haul everything up all these flights. This property is not for people who may have knee problems, back problems, any type of health condition at all.
The hot tub is definitely not easily accessible. I felt like they hid it behind a wall or something. And lastly there is like an elevator there that we were all afraid to get into because we have no idea when it was serviced. Shaky, makes noises, rickety. You know, these are just my opinions, but the whole thing surprisingly had a bad vibe. And it was loud too. You can hear traffic all day long.
Overall it seems like the place has been trashed a few times and I don't feel comfortable staying in a place that isn't even owned by the person who's renting it out. It's all just very shady and kind of dirty and I would suggest staying at some nice place like the Stein Eriksen or the Montage or some other place in Deer Valley. They also don't charge $1,000 for a deposit, so there's more room to the other fun things. In general I feel like Airbnbs are overrated, but if there's a perfect example of an overrated Airbnb this would be it. Run, don't walk from this property. read more
