Disappointing
This was the first bad experience I’ve had through VRBO, which lead to LEAVING the property less than two hours after arriving!! After arriving and unpacking the vehicle, I began to prepare dinner. After finding the pots that belong to the property in a kitchen cabinet, I saw that the pots were dirty. I went to clean the pots at the kitchen sink and when I turned on the faucet, the water smelled like rotten eggs. It was a nauseating smell so I had to use bottled water to finish cleaning the pots. I contacted the property “manager” and inquired to the smelly water. I was told “ It is well water so It can have a slight odor to it. There is a water pitcher in the fridge with a filter for you to use for drinking.” needless to say I was NOT drinking or showering in water that smelled so bad. After that I turned to the stove which was dirty and stain covered. I then found grease and dust above the stove on the cabinets going all the way to the ceiling which was covered with grease or dust (black specks) in at least a two foot radius. I then found a mouse trap behind the kitchen trash can which was next to the back door. Moving away from the kitchen I found damage to drywall, light switch covers and the doorframe to the main entrance. In the bedroom the night stand lamps were covered in cob-webs. The overall exterior cleanliness was less than appealing also. Overgrown and seemingly not maintained. The overall cleanliness of the property was disgusting. 0/10
