Worst experience possible. Not one to review harshly, but this needs to be shared- we had to leave after 5 minutes in the room. The building is located in the not best part of downtown and when we were walking up to building, there was several homeless on front steps & adjacent front porch. Not a big deal but then my 12 year old daughter got to witness a drug deal go down 5ft in front of us as tried to navigate to doors. We hurried in to be greeted by not so welcoming front desk staff & security guard that want proof of everything raising alarms of safety more. Once we got to floor of room the hallway was putrid of weed smell and smoke. We hurried into room and walked around for a min, then checked balcony to which unleashed another awful odor of weed that creeped into the room. We tried to adjust air to see if it would filter and cool as room was hot and messaged host. no response. Contact VRBO and they tried to reach host. no response. We had to leave, my wife and daughter did not feel safe and no one could stand the smell any longer. We left and in process of getting in car parked next to building we got to se another drug deal / exchange in broad daylight. We left and never looked back.. The host did not get back to us till next day when i explained we left & why. The host immediately stated there would be no refund, that I was prejudice and should start helping the homeless. First time ever had a host insult me and my family and did it via text thread on the app! AVOID!!
