We're not sure why previous renters gave such high ratings for this property. We arrived very late at night and were dismayed by the condition in terms of cleanliness, safety (broken handrail going up stairs, light fixture hanging from ceiling), health (pungent odor throughout), and dilapidated furniture, as well as the poor interior of the property. Because it was so late, we stayed the night but left early the next day. We contacted the host who did apologize but blamed previous renters. That seemed unlikely. VRBO was little help. The host agreed to refund 50% however. We'll report back if/when we receive any refund.
