Reviewer Comments:
Our fishing rods were stolen off our private porch in the back by the bay, called office staff about the issue and they said they would get with there team members & definitely get back to us that day. And up to this day nobody has got back to us! One of those fishing rods had very sentimental value to us it belonged to a love one that has passed. House was dirty. And ice machine made horrible nose all night that didn't allow our guests in the livingroom to sleep.
