Will Never Again Rent Without a Review
I believe this property was new to VRBO as it had no reviews and a”converted” star rating.I will give credit to the Management Company as they did promptly respond to every email/request.I will start by saying this was not a cheap rental, so this contributes to the harshness of the review.The apartment had been surfaced cleaned, but desperately needs a deep clean. For example, the ceiling fans (all of them) were caked in dirt, there was hair all over the back bathroom floor (I found a vacuum and resolved this issue), the vents in the bathroom were ineffective because dirt was blocking the vents and the grout, especially in the first bathroom’s shower was borderline disgusting.The other major issues were:1) The place is advertised that it has A/C. What is not noted is that it is only in the living room with no chance of reaching the back bedrooms. My Partner slept on the couch because it was too hot in the bedroom even with the fans.2) The place was not well supplied. There were no napkins or paper towels (to their credit when I emailed about this, they offered and did reimburse us for the paper towels we purchased); the laundry detergent bottle was empty as was the bag of dishwasher tablets. Also the number of glasses provided was very limited.On the positive side, the building is very secure. The Train station is about a 12-17 minute walk.Redfern is a kind of funky/quirky area which we liked. There are some great restaurants and good breakfast places.
