This house is a health hazard. First we came in and there was no AC. It was 99 degrees outside and 89 degrees inside. It was not fixed for two days. There were open fixtures, no covers on electrical plates, no lights to go to the basement where the washer was, a front door that had to be body slammed to open, so much more wrong. Garage did not open-we got two codes, neither worked. But the worst was the ANTS and SPIDERS. There were 3 of us that left with spider bites all over. There were ants in the coffee pot, in the shower, all over. And ant poison all open and around. Cabinets were sticky from the poison. We could not eat in the kitchen. One had to go to urgent care. We are all still scratching. There is so much more wrong. This rental should be taken off the market immediately. We are seeking a full refund. VRBO-close this place down.
