I would never stay here again. The apartment was filthy. The floors were not cleaned - my 5 year olds socks were black after walking on the floor for 5 minutes. I wiped the floor and sure enough it was black. Clearly hadn’t been washed. I had to clean the place. The owner Donald did not reply to my message when I told how how filthy it was and wanted to let him know his cleaning people were not cleaning . Then the bathroom sink was clogged and also the water pressure was so bad sometimes it wouldn’t come out. I then messaged him about that and he then called me- sounding very bothered and never mentioned my previous message on the condition of the apartment. When I said “did you receive my message about this place not being cleaned”. He let me know he in fact doesn’t have professional cleaners and his son cleans. He stated “I don’t know what to tell you, take pictures I guess”. I told him his son did not clean and asked why I am being charged for a cleaning service. He just kept saying “ok” and even giggled at one point and stated “I watched him clean”. I told him it was not ok and I was disgusted . He again just kept saying “ok”, he’s very arrogant. So arrogant that I asked him to please not fix the sink while we were there because I could tell the type of person he was and I did not want to cross paths with him. When we hung up I sent him photos - no response from him or his son who are both on these messages .
With Covid around I told him that I felt very uncomfortable with this. His response was “ok”. There are other people who rent in this building which is in a great location . Don’t rent this one.
He’s the definition of a “slum lord”
