Liked: Cleanliness, check-in
Disliked: Communication, listing accuracy
Property was as pictured but owner did not disclose that there was a tenant in the basement of the house and actually set up so called quiet times after already knowing that we would have 2 small children with us and definitely didn’t appreciate hearing the tenant coming and going all weekend, I will definitely NOT be renting here again as I feel it was very deceitful for him not to say in the beginning that it was a 2 family house and not single family until after I paid and agreed on contract ?
