"I am very disappointed by the condition of the Loom Cabin where we spent two nights this week. Many items are in a state of disrepair and basic maintenance is sorely lacking. Here a few examples:
- we arrived to an empty Modelo beer bottle sitting on the bottom step of the outside stairs.
- speaking of the outside stairs, the wood is completely rotted in some places with one or two steps completely missing. As a faint hearted attempt at safety, there was a cord tied across the entrance to the stairs but nothing blocking a curious child from trying to climb the stairs from the front porch.
- As you step into the front porch, the first plank is also partially rotted and/ cracked and will probably fail soon. Hopefully no one is hurt.
Inside, the cabin is quaint and comfortable but we also found some items in disrepair: my bedside lamp was broken and needed a bulb, if you need to connect a charger or CPAP you have to get on all fours and search under the bed for a power strip. Actually 2 power strips connected serially to each other and then to an outlet behind the bed. Who knows if this is even up to code.
Downstairs, there's some thermostat thingy hanging off the wall with wiring exposed.
Having a small kitchen area with a sink, Keurig, and toaster oven was convenient. Of course it would have been nice to find more than just one fork, two spoons, one butter knife and one kitchen knife there. Given the cost of the stay, we were not impressed to say the least."
