I called the listed emergency phone number . Tried several times . Just got hang ups. I left and got a hotel . Received a message from the owner at 11:00 pm . Called the next am. She said” my father in law was trying to call you to tell you to go to the back door “I hung up because I was driving to Grand Junction and was in a hail storm just outside Denver . The owner should have communicated this info in writing days before !Also I received a text the night before I was leaving that the owners were having a pest control exterminator company come while I was still there. They can’t wait until guests are gone?? ##### E M.
