During our stay we noticed a foul smell permeating the house that we later discovered was coming from mold in the crawl space. We tried airing out the house by opening up the doors/windows and using Lysol, but this did not help. We also noticed that an air freshener had been placed in the crawl space, apparently in an attempt to mask the smell.
This issue was so bad that it prevented us from staying at the Airbnb and forced us to find alternative lodging. After our trip, we also noticed that prior guests had experienced this issue and described it in their reviews.
On January 3, 2022, we reported this issue (including photographic documentation) to Airbnb in order to have this issue addressed and remedied. We were assigned an Airbnb customer service rep, but we still have not heard back from them as of January 16, 2022.
