I can honestly say that we have stayed in the outer banks since I was 8, and I’m 40 now, and I have never been in a house this dirty. We killed over 15 roaches in the first day, and kept killing more each day during the week. I did message the owner, and his only response was, ‘ sorry for your troubles. We get it sprayed every 3 months.’ The owner referred to them as water bugs….these were NOT water bugs. They were German roaches. They were out in the middle of the day, and when we packed to leave, we tried to get make sure none were in our personal belongings, and every single family has had to kill roaches that got in our luggage. My son was sitting at the kitchen table eating lunch, and one crawled up his leg. There was also mice droppings everywhere. The elevator was a constant problem as well. The magnetic strips on the door would come undone when the main door closed, because it’s old and needs replaced, and an error would occur that required the maintenance company come out to reset the system. I have three people that need an elevator, and we didn’t have one the last three days of our stay. Now, almost three weeks after our stay, the owner is requesting we pay additional fees for ‘damages’ we didn’t make, service on the elevator, and had the audacity to message that the maintenance individual isn’t an elevator technician, but knows just enough to get by. That was his wording in the message on VRBO. I’ve since had to get VRBO involved- terrible!
