The host was good with communication ahead of time. Upon arrival, the home was in what appeared to be a state of abandonment. The code the host gave was right and we were able to get in. The AC was not on, so it was almost 90 degrees and the house smelled musky. There was what looked like a months worth of mail on the kitchen counter along with some tools (maybe from previous maintenance?). The floors and counters were sticky and there was pubic hair stuck to the counter in a few spots. Several windows were found to be open, without screens. One was unable to be shut down due to frame damage. There were old family pictures on the walls and the closets were full of coats and clothes. There were a lot of dead bugs (live ones too) and also signs that mice were in the house. The whole house was as if it had been abandoned and then sat for several months without being occupied. My girlfriend and I sat on the couch trying to make up our mind if we would stay or try to find a new place. While sitting down, we both began to itch where the couch was touching us. So we decided we would not be able to stay. On the way out the door, the front door was hard to shut and lock because it did not have a door handle. Only a keypad. This only compounded my frustrations, especially after driving 6 hours to get there. I called the host and told him there was no way we could stay the night. He was very understanding and had VRBO send us a full refund. With cleaning, it could be an OK place to stay
