I arrive from one verbo to this verbo 10:30 PM at night. There were some insects in the house.
These bugs are called kissing bugs and or stink bugs.They were everywhere. I got up next morning. Kill some toiletball was stuck. Overflowing with fecal matter and water, which was not mine, which made it worse, went to the local gas station or acid, poured it into the drains to clear it up. Bugs keep coming out port foggers. Put a bomb in each bedroom, close the door. By the time the afternoon came, I opened the door the bed. The furniture the floor the curtains were covered in these bugs. There was nothing I could do, but literally grab my things and run out and abandoned the unit. After staying for less than 24 hours contacted, the host told me Sweep them away It's not a big deal. They told him they were in the bed. It was 7 PM at night. Looking for a motel hotel in this area, ranging anywhere from 269 plus and nothing was available due to college football games drove 4 hours away to find lodging and and pay over a $150 for a stay. Got up. Left Saturday morning was supposed to check out on Sunday. The 10th I'm already back home. I was told it wasn't his problem for me to contact evolve. I believe that this building should not be on verbo, and is not habitable. For anybody to stay in

If you really want to live life Slow and quiet for a bit. This is it. Pastures of beautiful coes grazing. Police were visible it was safe busy road. I would not recommend children. But the community was lovely a church across the way. Not for All but if you like to experience something different this is it.
Mooooo

After reading reviews from renters past, I was hesitant to book this location; but being that it was a busy weekend nearby, our options were slim. When we arrived at the property, upon walking in, you were hit with the smell of cat, or rodent urine. The air was stale in the home, so it was very pungent. As the A/C unit in the living room didn't work, we were never able to solve this problem. It just kept baking in during the day, if you will. And obviously, not having A/C in the common areas of the house was an issue.Our 3 year old was playing on the floor in the living room (on a rug) and before we knew it, she was displaying signs of an allergic reaction. Sure enough, her pants were covered in pet hair. Upon further inspection later, we looked under the furniture and it was as if an entire animal were shed there. We were aware that this was a pet-friendly home and we have stayed in other pet-friendly homes as well. We have never had an issue where the home was not thoroughly cleaned though.In the home there is a sign that mentions the color of the water and the fact that it is iron-rich, but safe. Fine. We verified this to be sure, but what you don't know is that if you have a white, or light colored item you need to rinse in the tub; it will be brown afterward. Just an FYI. When we arrived at we the home we tried to contact the property manager via phone and email and never received a response. We did reach out to Evolve and they were kind enough to help us.
