I can't believe this place is still available. It defies logic. There is not way they could have fixed everything in 2 days. I am very disappointed in VRBO.My stay from 8/7/26 to 8/9/26 presented multiple safety hazards and severe cleanliness issues. Structurally, the exterior stairs had exposed nails protruding significantly, and the exterior screen door was bent and unable to close. In the utility area, multiple cans of house paint were stored directly next to the water heater, presenting a fire hazard.The property also had an active pest infestation. There was a live ant trail traveling across the kitchen sink and down to the floor, alongside numerous roach traps, visible roach debris, and mouse droppings inside the cookware cabinet.Hygiene and sanitation were deeply concerning. The dishes inside the cabinets were put away dirty, the floors throughout the dwelling were unwashed, and there was visible black mold growing on the closet floor and walls. Additionally, the bed comforters emitted a strong, sour urine odor. Upon removing the sheets at checkout, the mattresses underneath were heavily stained with urine
