My husband and I were only able to stand being in this property for about 20 minutes, before deciding that we had to leave, and go find another place to stay. The main reason for this, was the fact that even though the listing on Homeaway claimed that the house was air conditioned, it was not, with the exception of a small unit on one living room wall. The heat was absolutely stifling! We went into the master bedroom, and it was so hot that we couldn't spend more than a couple of minutes there-- but that was long enough! We opened the door to what should have been the master closet, and the heat rushed out like opening an oven door. There was a dirty old mattress lying tn the space with nowhere to put any clothes. The owner of this property, had spoken to me a couple of times, before we left to go on this trip.. In one of the conversations, he had mentioned that he had just had the home thoroughly cleaned, in anticipation of our arrival. What a crock that was!! The bed in the master bedroom had hairs on the pillow, and stains on the sheets! In each of the two bathrooms, we saw a deep colored ring inside each of the toilets. If this was the owners idea of clean, I'd hate to see what he considers dirty! In addition to all of this, there was something leaking outside, and a bucket placed underneath to catch the flow. The place was generally in a state of disrepair, and it was furnished with the kind of ugly, mismatched furniture that most people leave out on the sidewalk to be taken to the dump. The listing had said that it was beachfront. It was. That was the only truth. The.home itself was a nightmare! The owner had said there was a phone there for us to make local calls The phone we had rented for this trip, was not working. After trying three different numbers, and getting the same recording, we gave up on calling. The recording advised us that the calls could not be completed due to non-payment of his bill! We promptly got into our rented car and left. We spent the rest of our first day of vacation, driving up and down the main road , looking for a place to stay. Luckily we found one by 6pm and checked in to a lovely, beachside resort.I called the owner after arriving home, and politely told him what had happened, and that I expected a full refund. He said he would only give me half back. When I asked him why he felt he should keep half of my money, he became very belligerent and told me to "shut my mouth"! This is not acceptable to me.
