Totally misrepresentation. Homeowner s an active smoker and wanted to schedule a time he could ente

The smoke smell was so bad we could not stay in the property . The management company refused to refund me. The homeowner wanted to access the property to shower and cook during my stay. He also smokes in the home and it is listed as no smoking in the home.
