This is a studio, not a one bedroom as stated in multiple places in the listing; shows up in a 1 bdrm search. Water leaks & black mold were throughout the unit. The shower leaked water all over the bathroom floor. The lack of an exhaust fan-owner told us he removed it- ensured quick mold growth & constant damp space.
Water also leaked & pooled in many spots in the studio. We spent a lot of time mopping & had to keep towels on the floor the whole time. The owners already knew about the water, mold, bed and stove issues, saying the leak was the association’s responsibility & spoke of their ongoing battle. The black mold above our bed, they said, was also the association’s fault, caused by a hole in the exterior wall. When told about the mold on the furniture the owner said she would just use a mold remediator.
The bathroom door was so swollen it wouldn’t close w/out extreme force. The kitchen counter had bugs running all over. The bed was horrific. We requested the owner sit on it & she fell toward the middle. They agreed it needed to be replaced.
The large burner on the stove didn’t work & when I looked under the coil it was filthy. The owner said he knew it needed to be replaced, wasn’t even going to try & fix it.
This was our 1st time having a problem, we didn’t know the policy & tried to resolve it w/the owner. VRBO said to call them asap & they would have found another place for us to stay. VRBO will be doing investigations for misrepresentation and health & safety.
