1BR Apt 9 min to Integris Monthly 15 Off #C2

I chose it bc of location and supposedly having a full kitchen and Wi-Fi and looking like a basic quiet place to get some work done.

It’s disgustingly filthy. The only way it could be worse is to have bedbugs. Instead it’s fleas, massive amount of flies that come in they moldy gaps in the walls. Everything is dirty, stained &/or broken beyond functional use. And the bedroom area had cameras all over it pointed toward the bed area. So I had to take all those and stack them elsewhere on shelves. Who does that & thinks it’s a design feature? There were no kitchen knives except a broken handled one. The cookware was filthy to broken. There was one oven mitt, and it still had food on it from whoever before. The toaster smoked and flew sparks causing the smoke alarm to go off not bc of the toast I tried to make but bc I was dumb and didn’t look to see that the thing had never ever been cleaned before so the everything from previous use had built up inside it. The kitchen sponge and bath towels were still dirty from whoever before. (I thankfully had my own bath linens.) And the flies! It was like a plague of flies. So much time wasted using a flip flop to kill as many as I could just so I could get some brief rest. I’d just sweep them in a pile when I woke up and again when I got back from work. I was so glad I packed flip flops bc I would never have allowed my bare feet to touch the shower floor. The WiFi was spotty at best and half the time I had no connection for the tv or anything else. I had to pay my carrier extra to hotspot from my phone to do work. It’s a “pet friendly” stay but I wouldn’t stay somewhere with my pet that has old pet stains all over the place. I finally had a break in work midweek and got unbelievably fed up & contacted the host who said they were sorry and sent someone to clean and replace the broken things. When I got back from work they’d put up 2 fly traps (that never caught a single fly) and replaced one skillet and one pot. That’s it. They didn’t do anything else. Seeing the lack of effort, I didn’t waste time dealing with the host again.

Location was great. Close to the highway, stores for shopping and restaurants for eating. Also a gym down the street and laundry mat. Nice neighborhood! Across from a church. Small and quaint.

The 2 bathroom towels were not so clean. The kitchen scrubber had been used. They should replace pots and pans routinely.

I loved the decor. The bed was very comfortable and the shower was nice.

I had wifi issues in the beginning but it was resolved. I also wasn't a fan of the duplex as you can hear and feel the neighbors activities because of the shared wall. Zero sound proofing 😔

It was very convenient and easy access

The bed wasn’t the most comfortable, it was very very soft and my husband and I are used to a firm mattress. It just wasn’t our style.
