Heart of Royal Oak - Entire house w hot tub!

Walk to all the restaurants, nightlife, and shopping when you book the best kept secret in the city! Very quiet and serene location but only a few minutes walk to everything downtown Royal Oak has to offer! Park on the private driveway that can fit up to 4 cars. Then enter the front door with a code given prior. Once inside you will have access to the 250 square foot living/dining area with connecting 100 square foot full kitchen complete with all cooking essentials. The hallway leads to the full bathroom, and two small bedrooms each with closet. Step outside the back door onto the deck with surrounding fully fenced mature garden and private hot tub! oven is inop but gas burners work great!

Basement is available for use with a laundry area and a large finished room which can be used as a play area. There is also an unfinished attic with access steps in main bedroon closet

Rough night- was left stranded at night on birthday with no warning
I was so excited for this property, but my stay got cut short 3-4 hours in (no time for the hot tub!). The owner has predatory practices & asked for a sizeable security a deposit outside of VRBO, on top of the deposit I'd already submitted through here, which is illegal & against policy. Called police on me & my pre-approved guests at 12:30 at night without any warning to evict me immediately. He stated we had '15' people on the premises which simply was not true. We were respectful of the property & kept noise down. Even the cops apologized, said it wasn't under their control, & wished me a happy birthday. The agent I spoke to also noted that it was unnecessary to escalate the situation so severely and suddenly- & wished me a happy birthday too! A night completely ruined and money wasted. Feels like price gouging, looking for any reason to kick me out to keep the deposit and all other money. Sickening when you realize how much I & my loved ones saved and planned to make this happen and see it snatched away. Incredibly disappointed and saddened. Also concerned about privacy-- nowhere was a policy on cameras displayed, & the agent noted the only way he could've raised a report about us (beyond an incorrect neighbor report, which doesn't seem to be the case) was thru monitoring these- very creeped out that I was being spied on at night. I paid nearly a grand to have zero privacy or respect. If you want to be preyed upon & watched like a hawk, this is your place!

High Price for a Budget Location
Overall it felt like a very budget property charging premium prices, I don't feel I got my value at the price charged for a one night stay on a Tuesday. Nice, walkable location in Royal Oak and cozy first floor & back yard. However, under-delivered on expectations when it came to the space - the main area layout is different than pictured, the bedding was much cheaper feeling and lighter weight than pictured. The check-in information had conflicting codes between the property manager and the Vrbo app, leaving me locked out upon first arrival. Check-out information was completely unpopulated in the app, and all signs in the house were hand-written Post-It notes or leaf paper. It all felt designed to maximize profit and felt cheaper than expected, I did not feel I got my money's worth.

Good for short but not long stay
We stayed for 10 days and the rental simply isn’t set up for more than a couple day stay. Starting with the good. The hot tub is great and easy to use. The house itself has a good location and a ton of potential but the execution is lacking.

Cute Old Home
Not great curb appeal but once inside it is a cozy little home. Very warm inside. New window are tight. Streaming TV with an antenna setup. No cable. Internet works well. Hot tub is a very nice feature that I did not get to use. Laundry was nice to have! It is located on a quiet street. It is not well public lighted outside. Alarm for the house would be nice.

Great location and overall great place to stay
Overall we really enjoyed our stay. Very close to everything in Royal Oak. Our only complaints were the mattresses were very soft/worn in. Some minor electrical concerns. Multiple bulbs out, one dangling on the chandelier from previous damage, a couple outlets that were missing faceplates etc. We also had two adults and two kids for three nights and only had two towels and wash rags. When I asked if there were more we were pointed to the dryer (did get an immediate response) where we found one extra towel. Overall not very well stocked kitchen in terms of utensils (couldn’t find a wine opener, scissors, or any rags) but plenty to get you by for easy meals.
