Highland Park

Check in delayed due to cleaning lady. Twin sheets put on queen bed. Floor dirty. No working internet/password on 1 TV and no hot tub as originally advertised. Which was one big reason this property was chosen.

Nothing like described

3504 Dato Ave Highland Park, IL This VRBO property is woefully inadequate when compared to the photos and description. Here are the multitude of noted issues: - [ ] The stairs to the “lower level” are dangerous. The treads are short so you have to turn your foot sideways and the angle of decent is very steep. - [ ] The carpet on those stairs is old and filthy. As you descend the stairs to the basement the carpet at the base of the stairs is torn and sticking up. Easily a fall hazard and absurd that torn carpet is in a rental at this price point. - [ ] The property has a heavy smell of mold/mildew. - [ ] Omnipresent spiders and other insects that I’ve killed and/or removed. - [ ] The room off the kitchen wreaks of pet urine. - [ ] The back porch to “relax on” has no furniture other than a small broken side table and fallen tree branches. - [ ] WiFi is terrible; if there’s any at all. - [ ] Roof leaked around skylights - [ ] The “lower level”/basement bathroom is in an area where the furnace and other mechanical systems are placed. The overhead light is inoperable so it is dark, creepy, and uncomfortable for my guests to access their bathroom. - [ ] Main level guest bath toilets paper holder is disassembled and hanging from the side of the cabinet. The bathtub is filthy and old. - [ ] The primary bedroom bathroom: - [ ] is incredibly small, - [ ] has no storage area, - [ ] Has a small towel rack that is designed for hand towels and does not accommodate
