As I said earlier, The two people who advertise here are not in the home. Medea is married to a caretaker who works there. The male caretaker told me he handles Airbnb. Cherie called me from a cell phone number in another town. She said she was "on vacation." The people living in the home were an elderly man, and his adult son. The caretaker was there in the morning. I booked because I thought women lived there. And I'm sure others feel the same and probably why it is advertised that way. Airbnb hosts are no different than hotels and need to have a responsible party there at all times. It cannot be run remotely.
I arrived at night and it was difficult to find. The lighting outside is not good. When I finally got in I was pleased with the large rooms and the amenities. I thought it was going to be good. But I noticed a problem with a wall unit ac in the bedroom which said it needed a filter. The internal ac did not work. There was a swamp cooler unit in the living room. There was a "heaviness" I noticed in the air. I unpacked my things and went to sleep with the cooling units on. In the morning when I went into the living area, I was hot with the strong scent of R-410, which is a chemical put in ac units. It is a distinct sweet smell which I have had a lot of experience with, and unfortunately very toxic. Once it gets in fabrics it never comes out. I opened the doors and went outside. I was met with an elderly man who lives there who was upset the dogs next door were barking. I went outside to my car and saw the window was down, and the car also smelled strongly of this chemical. I knew I did not leave the window open. The car was sitting outside next to the wall ac unit. The chemical is a nerve agent, created by department of defense and used by high tech stalkers as a weapon, and had been used on me before, so I contacted 911 and reported it. But I was told bynthe caretaker that yhe place had been renovated the orevious year and the ac unit was knew. I believe all units have that chemical in them and it is possible it could have been coming from it but the smell was also in the living room area, so probably maliciously placed there (from outside the swamp unit). I packed and left. Cherie had called and said if I wanted to leave it was ok. However, out of over $700 I have only
been refunded $145. When I told her that was robbery, she told me to check airbnb's refund policy and not to contact her again.
