Where to begin... I guess, with check in. We received a text from a random number with no identifying information asking when we were checking in, rather than communication from the vrbo app. After asking some probing questions, we confirmed our arrival as around dinner time because of when our train was getting in.The host, identified as Caroline, not Paul as it is listed in vrbo, refused to give check in instructions via text and said for us to just call when we arrived because it was "complicated".Upon arrival, Caroline instructed me to climb behind hedges and over walls to reach inside a plant pot for the keys. (Did I mention I am disabled with a bad hip?! What would someone in a wheelchair do?)Once inside we realized that the photos, while accurate, don't necessarily reflect the age of the apartment and it's clear that everything is original to the flat.Cleanliness was an issue. The first night we purchased some ice from Tesco, and when we went to place it in the freezer, realized that the drawers had random items and weren't clean, containing bits of food and crumbs.We were exhausted and just went to bed without much further inspection. The next day, we went to make coffee and found the coffee maker full of mold. The bathrooms both smell of damp, and there is definitely mold in both showers.We contacted the host and Vrbo, but there was no resolution. There is more, but I'm at my character limit. I would not stay here ever again.
