When we arrived we could immediately tell this apt was not well maintained nor cleaned so much so we left a night early just to get out of there! There was trim on the floor missing from the kitchen to the living room leaving exposed screw heads, a canned light was falling out over the day bed, there was a dead fly on the ceiling, food on the floor/barstools/counters/stuck to the wall by the garbage, hair and other random grossness in the utensil drawer, the dirty cleaning rag had been left on top of the coffee machine.... and this was all just in the living & dining room area. In the bathroom there was hair on the shower walls, black mildew I would easily wipe off with my hand, and the icing on the cake was taking a shower and grabbing a "clean towel" only to find dirt on my body .... shook out the towel and there was a ton of crap that came off. In the bedroom, there was a chunk of hair on the "clean sheets" right next to my husband's pillow. I notified the owner of these issues and he immediately offered to have someone come re-clean the apt but I told him no because I felt uncomfortable with all of our stuff in there so we changed out our own sheets and towels.
Then came the parking issues. We were supposed to be mailed parking passes, which never showed up. We were supposed to have parking passes in a drawer in the kitchen when we arrived, which weren't there. Then there were supposed to be some in the maintenance closet (which thank goodness we were told where the key was for this so we could get clean sheets and towels!), which again there were not. The owner called the HOA and notified them of the make/model of our car but coming back from a run on Friday I find a ticket on our car and the person giving the ticket said he had no information about our vehicle. I called the number on the ticket and the owner had indeed called. The owner then said he was going to get some passes brought to us and instead of leaving them outside the apt he gives whoever dropped them off the code to the apt without our permission.
