They knew they had vermin
We were informed they had a insect issue described as "ants" just prior to check in but definitely after the no refund policy. The "ants" were roaches. Our check in process was difficult, we contacted the host via message and phone and didn't hear back until 3 hours later. Overall my experience with Sonia and her property was not enjoyable.
