We were looking for a location near the Drake Campus for graduation ceremonies. When I originally booked the home, I was charged an additional 50 for early checkin. I neither requested or needed this. I only discovered it after I noticed the charges seemed high. This was corrected/refunded within a few days.When we arrived, there was a really strong/bad odor permeating the upstairs. We eventually found the source which was rotten/moldy food left in the oven. We also discovered the bed in the master bedroom had no linens (fitted sheet, top sheet) and there were visible stains on the mattress. Finally, the trash cans, particularly the large one in the kitchen, had no trash bags/liners and there were none in the house. I eventually bought some at the store. All of these situations were communicated through the app. But I got very general responses which made me think it may have been AI. After the first evening I called the number provided and the person who answered seemed surprised/caught unaware. We eventually had sheets and some extra trash liners delivered late afternoon the second day of our stay. The overall location was convenient to campus. The basement and other beds were fine. The bathrooms were clean and had plenty of towels and toiletries. The kitchen was functional. We were just disappointed in the lack of attention to detail on the mentioned items and no sense of urgency to address them when they could have easily been resolved the first evening.
