If this were our first VRBO experience, it would be our last.
We were so disappointed in this stay. You have a lot of choices in the area, so make a different choice. The unit that we stayed in did not match the pictures on the internet. I wish there was a place here to upload the pictures that we took of filth and broken blinds.
It was filthy! The first thing I had to do was to sweep the floor. We took a picture of the pile of dirt and debris. If the owner had paid someone to clean for them, they should demand a refund and send it to us. I then had to mop the floors. There was dirt and caked-on food on the floors. I took a picture of the mop water; it was black. It was beyond anything that I had ever seen. After that initial experience, I didn't trust the cleanliness of the beds or baths. If this had been a hotel room, I would have gone to the desk to ask for a different room.
This location is so undesirable. It is so far off of the parkway that it makes everything inconvenient. The roads to get there are curvy and dangerous. The surrounding neighborhoods are very sketchy.
The accommodations were just not acceptable and made me question using VRBO again. We have used this site for years and have not had a problem, but to have an experience like this with no recourse for a refund or compensation is just not acceptable.
