We were extremely disappointed with our stay. Having the alarm go off and the door pad shut down on us because the code had changed without us being informed was a bad start, but it didn’t get much better when we got in. The description advertised that it slept 6 and included 3 beds – that is not what we found. We searched and searched but not only could we not find a third bed, we could not find bedding or pillows for 6 people. Amenities advertised linens and towels, which were provided, but definitely not provided for 6 people. We found one bed in the bedroom, and a futon. The bedroom and its bedding were fine, but all we could find for the futon was a sheet and mattress liner for a small bed. To try to leave everything better than when we came, we used the sheet to protect the futon and the mattress liner as the sheet. We had 6 people, so two got the bedroom, three squeezed onto the futon, and luckily one slept in a pack and play that we had brought with us.
If it were only two of us, I would have been more understanding. If it were the six of us but the apartment was properly advertised, I would have been more understanding. If the futon had sheets and pillows for sleeping to accommodate the six people it advertises, I would have been more understanding. If the place were not so dirty, I would probably still be upset, but at least we would have felt comfortable having meals in the house. In the end we made everything work, but this is the worst VRBO experience we have ever had and I would strongly discourage anyone from ever stepping foot in this apartment.
The pictures and description of the apartment are lovely, but everything in reality seemed dirty and was falling apart. The door to the bathroom didn’t fully close and I had to use my pocket knife to tighten up the handle. The French press was broken. The coffee maker lid felt like it was sealed in grease and it made a sound as if I had cracked a seal when I opened it. The table in the living room was falling apart. So we stopped touching things. We were uncomfortable using anything. We were afraid if we touched anything it would break, or we would be even further disgusted. So we ate out and bought coffee in the morning, and by morning, I mean 3 a.m. in the morning because we couldn’t wait to get out of that apartment.
