Photos on the listing are VERY misleading. The property was filthy, smelled of mold, and visually had BLACK mold in nearly every corner of the house ESPECIALLY in the bathroom. Had I known the true condition of this property I would not of booked due to a severe allergy I have to mold, as does my 9 year old daughter who was with me for this trip. We originally had booked for 2 nights, but could not stay there a second night as it was a serious concern for our health. We have been home now for a week and we are still recovering from the allergic reaction we both suffered during the one night we were there. There was no on site staff, the staff on the phone was very pleasant though. The other people staying there were also very nice. The customer service was truly excellent. But this property is the most serious health hazard I’ve ever seen. It is NOT suitable for anyone to stay/live in.
