Type of Cooling for the Home
Central AC units are best kept at 68 degrees or above. Due to the lack of humidity in the area if the thermostat is lowered below 68 degrees it is possible that it can freeze the unit if it is working too hard. Unfortunately, it will take 24 hours for the unit to defrost before an HVAC specialist can service it. Our evenings are generally cool in the summertime, simply opening the windows will provide extra natural coolness.

-Please keep all trash secure in the bins. Do not leave any trash out overnight for your safety and the surrounding active wildlife in the city's area.

Amenities
Free driveway parking on premises – 2 spaces
Sticky substances on tables and dresser. Bathroom walls has splattered substance on them. Outside of the house has spider webs by both doors and scattered trash on the side of the house. Outside trash bin was completely full and smelly on arrival. Placed trash by curb as requested and it was not picked up. I reported this to Hoste and was ignored. Called the local Hoste number and the person that answered was rude and no help and assured me the trash would be picked the next day. The trash was not picked up and this time no one answered the line. I messaged Hoste again and finally after two weeks an external vendor picked up the trash. Air conditioning went out two days before check-out. I reported this to Hoste and without even asking me what the issue was they told me that the temperature could not be set below 68 degrees, or the unit would freeze up. The AC was never set below 75, so this was not the issue. I will never stay at a Hoste rental again due to this experience.Show more We needed a place to stay asap and it was awesome. Host was responsive and the questions were answered quickly. Perfect place for my family to stay. I appreciate the flexibility the host had in changing and adding on extra days. A stay that was supposed to be a few weeks turned into a few months and it was amazing to be able to stay longer.Show more
