September 2023

I was looking exclusively for a property with a (functioning) hot tub. The pool and the hot tub were freezing cold and Evolve's point of contact never responded. I contacted Evolve about the issue and they just said the point of contact would be the best person to speak to! I could have found a cheaper and/or nicer place somewhere else if I hadn't been wanting a place with a hot tub specifically. The neighborhood is run-down and sketchy too; we did not feel very safe. This is the kind of property that should NOT be on Airbnb!

Completely misleading when says owners is in a separate unit. Owner lives in garage and can access inside house at any time. We didn’t feel safe or privacy. I stood in kitchen and the owner walked out in backyard in bathrobe to get the trash cans. Front door was broken, we were locked out. Had to knock on garage door for owner to let us in. Owners car is in the driveway, parking for 2 cars not 3. Security door in back doesn’t lock or close properly. Window in bedroom doesn’t lock. Mold in master bath, both bathroom outlets were broken. Silverware dirty, microwave dirty, dirty appliances( blender & dishwasher)chipped plates, Broken cabinets in kitchen. Pool was dirty and plaster was rough. Had to swim with socks on. Nasty old unused fish tank and parts in living room. Curtain rod always fell down when opening curtains in Master. Shampoo wasn’t provided. Limited toilet paper and paper towels. Had to text the owner for more. No broom to sweep up house. Very limited basic essentials.
