Beware of the blame shifter! We were very nicely accommodated by Betsy & Forest for an early check in for an hour early arrival, all went well at the welcome; doors were closed a/c turned, however the next morning we saw a rodent in the kitchen 4-5” long! Forest immediately set a shoebox size trap in the kitchen for 3 days, and stated it could have been because our niece wasn’t available for check in to emphasize door operations. She is 30! We did see this “rodent” again, during this time. Why set a shoebox size trap for a mouse, this was a rat! Yes we accidentally tripped it during the 3 days, it’s a small galley kitchen, we tried to reset the trap but guess we’re not perfect. But according to Forest, we didn’t close the doors, should’ve have moved the trap, we did everything wrong-BLAME SHIFTER!! The most disgusting aspect of the situation was after the rodent was removed, we were sent a note about how happy the owner was the rodent didn’t have to die in condo. What? We had to have a trap in the kitchen in front of the stove and close to the refrigerator, so a rodent that probably survived a few hours in the wild for his piece of mind. We were the guest!
Additionally, during the four weekdays there was a remodel in progress in the upstairs unit directly above us with all the doors completely open, could another rodent come in that way?
Also the noise was so unbearable we could not hang out in condo during the day but Forest said he had no knowledge of the remodel. Difficult to rationalize considering there is an on-site manager! We would make the assumption there is an HOA, or BOD, which should have notified them. PLUS noticed 48 hours before check out, water shut off hour early on day of departure. Not cool.
We know that we will get roasted by Blame shifters in return for this review, but, think abt this future Airbnb renters-if you had a rat in your room for 3 days PLUS an ongoing noisy remodel on top of you, PLUS, it’s always your fault, would you give a favorable review?
Look back at reviews that aren’t favorable & you should see the same behavior from Blame shifters, it’s never their fault when the guests are unhappy. Hmmm…
