Jan 6, 2026 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Honestly everything was great, except for the fact although it says no smoking as soon as you walk in it smells like cigarettes. And after we got home we were having to do loads and loads of clean laundry bc everything smells like cigarettes. Coming from a group of non smokers it makes it hard. ##### Hillary H.
