DISGUSTING RUN
This house was absolute nightmare it was disgusting. The only thing nice about the house is the kitchen. We arrived a little early and it wasn't clean so we left when we got there. There were panties on the floor by the couch. We came back later that night because I had event to do I laid in bed and I was woken up by fleas bugs crawling on me. The hall bathroom tub is outdated and it was filthy around the tub. The bathroom door was swollen so it didn't close. The couch pillows had semen stains on them. We didn't even pull out the pull out bed because it was so nasty the sheets were balled up with hella crumbs. The other let out bed had a Centipede crawl out so it was Hell No. I called the customer service number they said they would send pest control out to check home for bed bugs or whatever was crawling on me to disturb my sleep. This was night 1 I didn’t sleep it was 4 am and nowhere to go with other guest. I went in the other bed with my daughter and her friend sleeping on the edge. Later that morning I went to the 2nd bathroom to shower and to my suprise it was the size if an RVvshower. I have never been in a shower or literally my back was against the wall. It is about 2 ft all around and the cheap shower liner was the shower curtain and it ate my butt severely the water NEVER got hot with little water presdure. The door with 2 locks and supplies was hanging off the hinges. The ceilings look like water would fall at any point. There were more lines and cracks in the

Average property in decent lower income neighborhood
The owner of the property was lovely with excellent communication. The property manager was not so nice. I paid for that property with my elderly mother’s credit card. She did not have a drivers license (property manager required this) and our stay almost did not happen. I asked the property manager to refund the money to my mom’s account and I can transfer the money to my account and pay them so I can show them my drivers license. They didn’t tell me it would take 7 to 10 days to refund. Long story short, they then told me they were going to reverse the refund though they actually debited my mothers card a second time so then she was overdrawn (charged twice) until the refund processed. The house was decent. All of the pillowcases were missing. Every day up to 100 ants would come out of the guest bathroom sink and I alerted the property manager and the owner and they never responded so I think it’s an ongoing problem. There is also a lot of broken glass from an old window pane in the backyard so if you have a pet, you need to be careful. Lots of empty beer cans against the gate in the neighbors yard. Even a full beer and monster energy drink were left on this property outside. Otherwise, inside of the house was decent. The neighbors played loud music at night on the weekend though during the week it was fine. The beds were super comfortable. The decor was adorable.
