Dead mouse
We arrived at the property without issue. Inside the building the door was difficult to navigate as there were piles of wood stacked up in the hall. On entering the property behind the first door we found a mouldy mat outside of the shower which had made the whole property smell. The second door was to the kitchen which had a dead mouse in the middle of the floor. It had clearly been there for some time. We decided not to investigate the flat anymore at that point and did not stay
