DO NOT BOOK THIS PROPERTY! We booked this house because our family likes playing games & pinball, for location and outdoor space, but upon arriving we were hit with a heavy stench of mold, pet odor, and decay. The listing photos are clearly outdated — the place is neglected, not charmingly retro. We had to buy odor neutralizers and clean the fridge and bathroom ourselves after 15+ hours of traveling. Many listed amenities were unusable: washer/dryer blocked with the owner’s items, a non-working grill, dirty and disorganized patio furniture with a broken umbrella. The “in-room dining area” is just a pinball machine table with no legroom. No water dispenser aside from the kitchen tap. Dirty dishes in the dishwasher and expired food in the fridge. We found rodent droppings under the sink. The full bathroom sink and shower show rust, leaking faucets, missing tiles, and peeling ceiling paint from poor ventilation. The house is a fire hazard — extension cords run under rugs, and some outlets and switches are broken. We cleaned areas and took photos to document issues. We would have canceled if we’d known how bad it was; the small compensation received after complaining doesn't equate to the steps taken to mitigate the issues to feel a bit more comfortable. This property is not worth the price. Owner, please remove this listing, repair the damage, and maintain basic cleanliness and safety — there are clear health and safety concerns. This is an honest warning to future guests.

We had a great experience staying at Pinball Pete’s place. Very clean, cozy, comfortable, with use of the kitchen and some food provided … and, of course, pinball! Our host also went above and beyond in helping us to resolve an unexpected issue. Hoping to stay there again in the future.
