The house is in a secluded area, close to town.The layout was nice, the kitchen was equipped with the necessary appliances and prep essentials. However, the vacation house had its drawbacks. The bed in the Master Bedroom was uncomfortably hard, like sleeping on plywood, and the homemade bed frame popped with every slight movement, often shifting across the room. Additionally, the Master Bedroom featured an ADT control panel with a built-in camera and the screen was constantly illuminated. I didn’t report the camera, given our 10-hour drive for an 8-day stay, turning back wasn’t an option. Instead, we covered the camera with tape and draped a towel over the screen, hoping there were no other hidden cameras among the numerous motion sensors throughout the house and on the doors and windows. The hot tub was foamy and had an unpleasant odor, it did get serviced on the fifth day of our stay, but it raised concerns about whether it had been cleaned before our arrival. Our scheduled check-out time was at 10 AM; however, we had to leave early due to a flat tire caused by a sharp rock in the driveway. After addressing the tire issue, we realized we had left an item behind. Since it was still before check-out time, we returned to retrieve it, only to discover that the housekeeper was present and had already been cleaning awhile. This raises a troubling question: was there an undisclosed camera monitoring our actions, or how was it determined that we vacated the premises early?
