The home was cute but had some issues
The place was cute but had some issues. The spa was not ready, the water was cloudy and cold. The home had a hole in the floor and mold around the hole in the living room floor. The air conditioning vents appeared to have black mold on the registers and inside. Also, the refrigerator water and ice dispenser had black mold all over. It felt like mold and mildew was in the home. The location was great but the home needs work especially for the price.
