Mosquitoes ruined it

Everything was lovely and as expected other than we were a bed short when we arrived! This was soon rectified by the agency delivering a camp bed that we had to use in the living area. But the enormous quantity of mosquitoes ruined the stay. They seemed to be coming in through a vent in one of the bedrooms - there were literally hundreds of them and every day so sleeping was a problem unfortunately as the seemed tomtolerate our sprays and repellants in

Stay Away

Worst stay of our entire lives that we left as soon as we secured other lodging. First off there’s no address given only longitude and latitude. The owners are non existent. They give you two numbers, one that is out of service and the other they never responded to (including not responding directly to VRBO). This was just the check in process that took multiple hours for us to find the apartment. When we open the door, there’s mold on the walls, dead mosquitos smushed into the walls and most disturbingly BLOOD on the walls. In conjunction with the dead bugs there were also plenty of live ones. We woke up to tons of mosquito bites and only stayed there the one night because we didn’t get in until late and VRBO was unhelpful rebooking us and they could not get ahold of the owners either. There was no hot water, the beds were not beds but box springs and none of the showers or sinks would drain so there’s just sitting water (probably added to all of the mosquitos). Worst stay of our entire lives. Stay away from this place it’s a health code violation.

Das Auffinden der Unterkunft war sehr schwierig da alle Häuser gleich aussehen und keine genau Adressen nur Koordinaten genannt wurden.Die beiden Türen zum Appartement ließen sich nicht versperren und trotz sofortiger Kontaktaufnahme mit ihrem Personal Vorort wurde der erhebliche Mangel bis zum Ende der Reise nicht behoben. Schimmel in dem Appartement und in den Bädern. Heraushängende Steckdose.Defekter Türgriff im Badezimmer und an der Schiebetür im Eingangsbeteich.Im li. Badezimmer kam in der Dusche nur kaltes Wasser.Ein Backofen war in dem Appartement secret garden house nicht vorhanden( lt. Internet aber vorhanden).In der Waschmaschine war ständig schmutziges Wasser.Die Krönung war, dass ihre Mitarbeiterin uns zu verstehen gab in Italien keine Kommunikation auf Englisch möglich ist.Das einzige positive war, dass die von uns gewünschten Weingläser am 6 Tag kommentarlos in einer Tüte hinter der Tür standen und wir diese durch Zufall entdeckt haben.MfgE.Lang
