However, two days into our stay an overwhelming stench started to permeate area of the house where the bedrooms are. One of the rooms because entirely unusable, and I had to move my daughter out of there. A Vacasa rep came to investigate, and agreed that it smelled like mold, or something rotting in the walls. The issue was not resolved during our trip, and I have yet to hear from anyone at Vacas about any sort of compensation. Something seems very wrong in this house, and until it is resolved, no one should be staying there. ##### Noah S.

The a/c leaked all over the floor In the maintenance room and hall. We reported it and instead of calling my cell they sent a text to my house phone so I had to call them back the next day to get it fixed. 2\. There was no hot water in the kitchen or half bath sinks. Other than that the house was fine. ##### Kathleen W. ---
