This was our first time staying in a VRBO, and unfortunately, it wasn't the experience we were hoping for. The condo itself appeared to be clean, but from the moment we walked in, there was a strong old, musty smell that lingered throughout our stay. It made the condo feel dated, and because I'm very sensitive to smells, it was difficult for me to feel comfortable. The owners may want to consider adding an air purifier or a subtle diffuser to help freshen the space, as I think it would make a noticeable difference.Another issue was the number of bugs we found around the condo. We noticed a gap around the front door, and it seemed like beetles and other bugs were getting inside because of it. I understand that insects can be part of staying in a wooded area, but constantly seeing bugs indoors made me uncomfortable. I'm just not an outdoorsy person, so it wasn't something I could relax with.We were also disappointed that only one shower was working. The larger tub/shower was unusable, so our entire family had to share the small shower, which was inconvenient.I didn't bring these concerns up during our stay because, based on everything I had read about VRBO, I didn't think these issues would qualify for any refund or compensation, so we just made the best of it and finished our vacation.Overall, this property just wasn't the right fit for us. It made me realize that we'll probably stick with resorts for future vacations, as they better match our preferences.
