The room had an amazing view; HOWEVER, the room itself was a disaster... When we first got there, we noticed an odd smell. To me, it smelled like maybe someone had recently smoked in the room combined with the stench of mold/mildew - Possibly the furniture as the couch and stools at the island counter all looked stained as if they’d been wet several times before and poorly cleaned. If someone told me the owner found the couch and chairs sitting in someone’s front yard with a “free” sign on it, I’d believe them. Then, the big finale.... We had to kill upwards of 20 cockroaches in about 24 hours time! They were everywhere... Including on the couch and in the bed! Not to mention when we tried to make sandwiches for lunch and, after stepping away for a brief moment, found one on our food that we then had to throw away. This place needs to be bug bombed, thoroughly cleaned and have the furniture replaced before anyone should stay there again!
Vacasa did relocate us to a new room (without the amazing view) and provide us with a small partial refund for our troubles. So I applaud them for their efforts to make this right. But it really did ruin the first couple days of our trip and, thereafter, robbed us of the incredible view we opted to pay extra money for. Frankly, I’d like a larger refund as we wound up with a lesser view and in a different building than our friends with whom we originally planned this trip. So, overall, my level of trust for any properties managed by Vacasa is tarnished - Not sure we’ll use them again. And I’d certainly recommend to anyone that they STAY AWAY from this particular room, despite how beautiful it appears online.
