The property manager never responded to multiple messages. When we called, someone answered and said they had no affiliation with a VRBO. There were roaches and mice. The master smelled terrible due to holes in the cabinet under the sink exposing the pipes. This stay has made us question using VRBOs in the future. Hardly any amenities —tea 2 years past expiration, no toaster etcetera. We way overpaid for this rental.
