Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Melissa W. 10 Sept 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Had to leave immediatelyDo not book this property. The conditions were so poor that we had to leave immediately upon arrival and find alternative accommodation at a nearby hotel. The space had an overwhelming, unpleasant odor that made it unbearable to stay. The carpets were heavily stained and filthy, and the overall condition was dingy and concerning from a safety perspective.This property is completely misrepresented in the photos and description. What we found was unlivable - not just disappointing, but genuinely problematic. We've stayed at dozens of rentals and have never encountered anything this bad.We ended up paying for both this unusable rental AND a last-minute hotel room. This property should not be available for booking until major cleaning and renovations are completed. ##### Melissa W.
