The bathrooms were beyond filthy. The kitchen had bowls of rancid grease/gravy left under the counters.
Upon arrival we tried to contact the owner. She was out of the country. We met her Father who was delightful and understanding. Apparently a substitute cleaning service had been used, unfortunately they were not remotely up to par.
We could not find another place to stay at that point. We were assured that we would be refunded half of our reservation cost. So, we cleaned and stayed. Trusting this was just an honest mistake of genuinely nice people getting bad service from cleaners.
The house is beautiful, spacious and had everything we needed.
I truly believe our situation was not typical . We have used vrbo for years and never had an experience like this .
