Made through some issues during the stay, but nightmare experience after check-out.
In order to rent, the host made me sign an additional contract outside of the app asking for first and last names of all of my party and their relationship to me. The host also did not advertise the required additional $15 per car per night.
Once I arrived, the host did not give our names to security and was not answering my texts or calls. The front desk was open, so i got through, but when we got to the house, i finally heard back and he questioned how we were able to get in as if we weren't supposed to be there. The host gave me the code to the door. No toilet paper or paper towels. The kitchen and dishes were not properly cleaned.
Despite being charged extra for linens, cleaning, and parking, we checked out and followed the contract to the T. The host then filed a $1,700 claim against the travel insurance, which was denied. Then the host sent me a picutre and a quote for $1,002 for replacement sofa for smoking damage. The quote was dated while we were still in the house. No one in my party smokes, period.
The host had two properties and the guests in the second property were smoking cigars. The sofa in question was never located in the house I rented. I showed VRBO a video recording of walking through the house that proves the sofa wasnt there. VRBO agreed we are not responsible for those damages. I will never recommend this host to anyone. Im sorry I even waisted my money with them.
