Selma House

This house is nice but the property suffers from a few deficiencies that make for issues. Most doors did not close properly and there is very limited closet space.

Hi Richard, the right vacation home is everything, and we're disappointed if this wasn't the one for you. We use professional photography so the features you see on the listing are accurately advertised. The home is historic and has a number of fun quirks. Thank you for taking the time to let us know about your stay.

Property needs work

The house reeks of mold there is a terrible stench in the home. There are roaches in the cabinets, stains on the wall, unkept yard. The house interior looks nothing like the photos online. The televisions do not work without WiFi. No WiFi, security alarms, hangars for clothes this venue needs a lot of work.

THINGS THE DESCRIPTION DOESN'T TELL YOU

This home is located in the oldest neighborhood in Selma - research it. While this particular house is cute and in the process of being updated, it still has a lot of work to be done. This works includes front and back doors that are fully functional and secure the house. If renting this house you will have uninhabitable / falling down houses within a few houses from the rental - as well as spread throughout the neighborhood. If any of that makes you uncomfortable this isn't your house because it's a kind review based on our experience. And when we contacted the owner about our safety concerns on Friday evening, that we did not feel comfortable staying in the house, and were leaving to check into a hotel - there was no response until Sunday about 11:30am.

Hi Christy, we want all our guests to rest easy when they stay with us, and we're so sorry to hear that you were concerned for your safety. Providing a safe and comfortable environment for all of our guests is at the forefront of our mission. After going over your feedback with the homeowner, we wanted to share the following: - The owner confirmed they spoke with your husband on Friday evening. The owner explained Selma has some abandoned housing and buildings; however, their home is old and charming. They also let you know that no incident had been reported at the house. - An Evolve representative was also in communication with you throughout your stay. They worked with you to provide a fair resolution to help make things right for the inconvenience you experienced. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.

I have stayed in a couple different houses in this area and this was best suited my family. House is old but was very clean and nice.
