The owner was attentive and quick to respond, initially. No problem with the check in. It has a lot of space & plenty of POTENTIAL. Based on the pictures, I expected the house to be old and not extremely updated, but I expected it to be CLEAN. When I messaged the owner about the ROACHES in the kitchen sink, he responded immediately and asked me to take pictures. I had immediately started cleaning the place because my other guests were already on their way so I didn't get pictures of the first roaches that I saw. When I sent him a pic of a later roach that I had sprayed with the almost empty can of roach spray that was already there, he pretended to not know what it was... But there were 2 almost empty cans of roach spray there, so he knew the place had roaches!! It looked as tho the bathrooms were "cleaned up" before my arrival, but so outdated. (And I say cleaned up very loosely). The rest of the house, on the other hand was terrible. The beds were not neatly made. As if someone just threw the covers back up (the way my teenaged son makes his bed). The furniture looked as if it was brought from the GoodWill and just dropped off (stains on the couches, rips in the chairs). The kitchen table didn't have matching chairs and the dining area had these random unmatching raggedy chairs that I took and stuck in a bedroom before my other guests could arrive. My sister and I had to wipe red dirt off the doors and breezeways, move the furniture around to make it SEEM more inviting. One room had a balled up cover on the couch, and pillows in the corner on the floor like someone had just been laying on the couch before I walked in and ran out the back door. I had to take those pillows and hide the rips in the chairs. The linen closet was (see pic) unorganized & we had to make one of the beds in the walk thru to make it look presentable. There were towels that were in the dryer, but still wet... And the worst part of all were the ROACHES!! I had to go on and do my dinner that night cooking and killing roaches because it was too late to cancel 🤮🤢but I canceled our breakfast plans and did not use the kitchen anymore. My sister went home and brought her Keurig back so we could have coffee the next morning bc I would NOT DARE use their appliances! With a 6bedroom house, my sister and I slept on the couch!! Having paid almost $800 with fees for 2 nights, I slept on the couch, and did not even shower. My birthday weekend was officially ruined!
