Smell

Only stayed here for two nights. The house started smelling line sewage on the second day after arriving. Notified the Host and requested a cancellation due the unsanitary odor. Host was of no help and kept saying “I’m new to this and I don’t know.” After multiple request to cancel, finally succeeded with the additional cost of a week because the Host was not trained or didn’t care. So sad. A lovely home but no guest services. Gouged for 2/3 of a 3 week reservation when we only stayed 2 days and a night.
