When we first arrived at the property we couldn't even get in the property. When we got inside the house smelled dirty. Went to take a shower in the main bathroom and there was black mold in it. The fan and light didn't work in the bedroom with the 2 twin beds. The pool had green algae around the side of the steps. The furniture looked like the furniture my grandma had in her house. In the list
