The host himself, Hector was wonderful to work with and very responsive to my messages. Unfortunately he has not seen his place in a while and is in another country. There was water damage, mold and mildew throughout the unit.
I also paid the required Valley service for $70 and the key fob for $20, unfortunately did not pay through Airbnb and they refused to refund the $70 and $20 when we had to leave to go to a different Airbnb because the unit is not safe.
I do believe if the host Hector gets the needed renovations/cleaning completed that could be a very nice place to stay and he is very responsive to messages and even notified me that he ordered the needed repairs as soon as I notified him.
It's very unfortunate that he was trusting a poor performing manager for his unit. I truly wish him the best and genuinely believe he did not know how bad it was.
