Disliked: Cleanliness
Run down house
Was contacted 3 hours before check in that "lights weren't working because of power surge". In actuality it was because of mice and rats chewing on electrical wires. Claimed they had a property right next door with "same amenities" I booked a 2 bedroom 2 bath house and the property we were given was one bedroom one bath. Rat droppings everywhere, shower I could barely turn around in, coffee maker not operable, k cups eaten by mice. back door not operable because of settling foundation. Sticky surfaces in bedroom, Stained couch, Stairs that were down right dangerous to navigate to beds upstairs. (didn't book a 2 story house with stairs) Never have had a bad experience with VRBO but this one was. Should have just stayed at the motel 6.
Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024
