Our April 23–26 stay in Mt. Juliet, TN had several maintenance and cleanliness concerns that impacted our experience. Upon arrival, we noticed significant dust build-up, worn and weathered patio cushions, debris on the deck, and a grill that was not clean or ready for use. The fire pit also was not prepared for burning, which was disappointing since we planned to enjoy the outdoor amenities our first evening. Unfortunately, because the patio area was not fully accessible or inviting, our first night plans were essentially lost.We also experienced issues with the hot water. The hot water went out during the stay, and even before that, there was only enough hot water for one or two showers at a time. In addition, there was a very loud gas pump or mechanical noise in the downstairs bedroom area that was unsettling, especially since we were initially unsure what the machine was.To the host’s credit, she was cordial, responsive, and attempted to address each concern as it was reported. However, the number of issues and the condition of several amenities prevented the stay from fully meeting expectations.
