Check in was a nightmare...it took is an hour and a half. We arrived at the address and it was overgrown and it rough condition. The lights outdoor tgat actually work flicker. The home is outdated and nedds some tlc inside amd out. It looks as if its been abandoned. Tge well in the front yard was uncovered we covered it for them. There are trees half dead with Christmas lights in them. The little red gazebo is delapitated. Upon entering the home you are hit with strong oder masking smells of glade plugins thay may not bother some but to highly sensitive people its awful.There is a lot to cover on the inside. Several decorations are broke amd still there!decorative pillows have holes big ones.The fire place needs swept and cleaned. The kitchen stove has the wrong adapter attached to it and causes it to receive to much gas or propane that cause large flames in the stove. The pilots on the stove don't adjust great. The stove is pulles out from the wall and all kinda of trash behind it. It says to leave pulled out. The kitchen aink leaks there is a bucket cathing the water and also the faucet. The glass and mirrors are all filthy. The one toilet seat is cracked. The ceilings fans have a ton of dust on them. The futon had dirty sheets. The fridge has a broken piece inside. There are random holiday decorations and most of the decor has not been dusted. Light fixtures nees cleaned desperately. Broken blinds on sliding door. Screens broke on doors and hole in them on back enclosed
