I was very surprised by the poor condition of this property located in Brentwood, first of all the apartment building from the outside is in very bad condition, the neighbors observe us all day, they play loudly music and the dogs pooped in the grass in front of the unit. Mechanics repair cars just on the right side of the apartment, the next door neighbor washes her two dogs in front of the apartment . Inside the apartment there is a strong smell of cigarettes in all areas, especially when it has remained closed for a while. This has caused us serious allergies. On the other hand, at night there is a strong smell of marijuana. The cockroaches and ants are a serious problem, in those two weeks we killed several (5-10 cockroaches per night) thank goodness they were small ones because if they were the big ones I think we would have run away. I also want to mention the master bed, the mattress had separated from the bed and half of it was lying on the floor when we went to bed the first night, we had to fix it ourselves the next day. The sofa bed in the living room is full of dog hair and looks like it has never been cleaned, the sofa cushions smelled like dog as well. If we could have refunded and left the first day we would have. Id like to give a better review but I feel like it is my responsibility to inform about the needs of this apartment and also to give proper expectations to future people who might stay here. It needs to be disinfected and cleaned thoroughly before being offered to another family. I think it would be appropriate for young people who want to spend a night of fun, we had to eat outside due to the number of cockroaches, and we did not feel safe to prepare food there.
I informed the owner about our concerns, it was acknowledged but there wasnt much they could do while we were there.
