RENTER BEWARE Slum Dump Rental
This rental is completely run-down and dirty and smells of urine and mold. It has not been properly maintained or cleaned. The pictures have been edited and are not representative of what the house really looks like. Broken broken window on the porch, The paint on the walls is peeling in the main room and hallway. The refrigerator is rusted and the ice maker barely works. The kitchen is filthy and hasn’t been deep cleaned in years if ever and the cabinets are covered with old petrified food and drink. One of the cabinet doors is falling off the hinges. The ceiling stucco is falling in over the dining table. Pieces of the ceiling over the table kept falling during our trip and a piece fell on my husband while he was eating breakfast this morning we left. In addition to being dirty, the kitchen was not equipped with enough dishes for 6 people. We had to take turns using bowls. There are no sharp knives and a dull knife sharpener that needs to be thrown out. There was only one kitchen dish rag and no broom. The night we arrived I had to go buy a can opener, cleaning supplies, rags and cooking knives that cut because there were none. The tub is absolutely disgusting and looks like it has never been deep cleaned… ever. The drain is also clogged and very slow to empty adding to the grossness. The “bath mat” was so nasty I didn’t want to touch it. I put it in a garbage bag for the duration of our trip and left in the bathroom when we check out. It has obviously never been washed and looks like it was dragged in from the parking lot. The A/C filter door looked like it had a fur coat. I opened it and an inch of thick matted hair dirt and grime that was nauseating. The bedroom with the king bed has a strong smell of urine and a poorly patched hole in the door. There are holes and what appear to be blood stains on the bed spread. I don’t believe any of the bed covers have ever been washed. The internet only works intermittently. There is no dedicated Wi-Fi router for this unit so technically it does not have internet. This unit has to connect to a router on the other side of this duplex. It is inaccessible from the side we rented. We had to knock on the door of the unit next door and ask the renters to reset the router multiple times. We gave up and had to make business zoom calls using data and use our phones as hotspots because the internet constantly blinked out. If I had known the truth about this rental I would absolutely never booked it.
