Property advertised no pets, but the owner clearly had dog(s), There was dog hair inside when we arrived on Friday. Hair was in Master bedroom on the chair and in the drawers. We had to use wet-ones to wipe out the drawers and shelving to be able to use them. We had to call the Abode management to get cleaners out who came on Saturday. No matter how much they cleaned, there must have been dander or hair in the HVAC system. I am allergic to dogs and cats, and I had an allergy attack which made it difficult for me to breath, especially at high elevation, which prevented me from skiing and ruined my trip. When we left the property for extended periods of time, my breathing improved, but every time I returned to the house, my difficulty breathing came back.
Short term rental properties should be REQUIRED TO REPORT PETS if the owners have pets, so this doesn't happen again to someone else.
Additionally, the property was a little tired and not like in the pictures, which were obviously from a few years ago. The master bedroom sliding door had frost on the inside. There was a small electric plug-in heater on the floor next to it, so the problem must have been there for a while.
While I'm sure the property was nice at one time, after all the costs and fees, I felt like this was a very bad choice and would have been happy to pay more for a nice rental that was as described and as pictured.
Abode management company was very responsive.
Bottom Line: Consumers need to be protected
