Jun 21, 2025 Liked: Communication, location Disliked: Cleanliness #### Eeek!! This rental is in desperate need of TLC. The sewage leak underneath the property provides a long-standing home for the mosquitoes. The many bugs that run rampant through this property start with various ants, water bugs, and an unknown critter that crawled on my leg waking me up in the middle of the night. I assume they come in and out underneath the front door, since it has no weatherstripping, you can see at least an inch of daylight. Which also causes the air conditioner to work overtime. The extra shower knobs, make it difficult for shorter individuals to take a shower without hitting their head. The cabinetry and refrigerator are full of expired products, you know leftovers from other renters. The first rule in hospitality- thoroughly clean and prepare after a guest checks out, so it appears fresh and unused for the next guest. We would call this type of rental a St. Louis special it’s livable but on the lowest scale, D. ##### Desire B.
