Vic

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
Discouraged because there was no full size bathroom on the first floor. We had a handicapped person and could not stay at the home. We had to rent another place. It was a total waste of money. No refund - -NOT EVEN the cleaning fee and we did not stay there. Will NEVER rent a home this way again
Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025
