Review Score:   6
Summary: The property had no curb appeal, it needed work on the outside and the grass was in desperate need of cutting. The third bedroom was in the basement with most of the beds and did not have a door. The grill was filthy and we had to get cleaner and do a deep clean before we could use it. I think we were the first people for the season and the water barely came out until my husband started cleaning the screens. I had to call to get the kitchen one cleaned. When I had inquired about the coffee maker I was told there was an expression machine b by it was a keurig which we would have brought pods for
