Cigarette smoke smell in property

Cigarette smoke smell in property that was listed as a non-smoking stay. We left immediately on entry. Also does not have doors for bathroom or bedrooms if that is desired. Would not recommend.

Response from VrboOwner on 29 Jul 2025
Hi Alexander, thank you for sharing your feedback. We followed up with the owner, who would like to provide some clarification:- The home is a non-smoking property, and we have never allowed smoking inside. We also did not detect any smoke odor upon inspection after your call.- The home does have a door for the bathroom, and the bedroom noted in your review is actually a bunk room that is designed to remain open due to safety requirements. - We responded promptly to your concern, arriving within 10 minutes of your initial call, but no one was present at that time.We take all feedback seriously and will continue to ensure the home is thoroughly inspected to provide the best guest experience possible.
