We found the house to be decently clean, aside from some dirty cutlery/dishes, and it was a good space for our family of 6. There was a lack of supplies such as limited hand soap in the bathrooms (we had to go purchase our own), no cleaning supplies, and few garbage bags, among other items. Additionally, we were disappointed in the communication with the host. In the weeks prior to our booked stay, the Okanagan area (which includes Penticton) had declared a state of emergency due to an uncontrolled wild fire in Summerland which is very close to Penticton. The main highway was closed due to this fire and the residents of the affected areas were taking shelter in Penticton. As such, we felt it not only dangerous to make the trip, but also non-sensible to cause more strain on the town/Okanagan area. We reached out to the host several times with our concerns, and he did not respond at all. We would have been understanding if a refund was not possible, however, it is not okay to completely ignore messages from guests as a property host, especially given the state of emergency. Any type of response would have been appreciated, even a simple no. Additionally, the day before our booked stay, I had to reach out to him to get the check-in details as I had still heard nothing from him. Also, the driveway was half-missing and workers showed up to repave it during our stay which we got absolutely no warning for.
