We arrived very excited based on the pictures online for the rental. The house itself was clean as far as the outward esthetics, clean kitchen, bedrooms with fresh sheets, pillows, and blankets, the carpet was swept, and the bathroom was clean with lots of fresh towels and wash cloths. Where we found immediate disappointment was when you walked in the door it was an instant smell of a musty, damp, earthy smell. It was not shared on the listing that one bedroom was in the basement, which was not a problem until down there. The basement smelled of mold, instantly, once you went down the stairs. The bedroom had a “creepy vibe” and upon further inspection the bed had mouse poop on it in the corner of the boxspring which was showing from sheets being put on. There could have been more on the bed but the comforter was black, so it's hard to say if there was more. The laundry room had black mold in the corner on the floor/wall and along the floor on other walls as well. The ceiling had exposed wiring in the laundry room and the stairs also had mouse poop on them as well. The bedrooms upstairs had broken blinds, and some missing blinds on windows in the kitchen and bedroom. We had to place blankets over a few of the windows to add privacy and block out the light for children to sleep.A bird had made its nest on the deck outdoor light and anytime you went out it attacked you, but also pieces of the soffit were coming off outside as well. The ceiling fan did not work in the living roo
