Sharelle Petty - AKA Sharelle Overton rents her personal apartment, and leads one to believe that it is a rental not a place she actually lives. It is a nasty apartment located in a decrepit building…. Which is not as described. PLEASE BE AWARE THAT YOU NEED EARPLUGS AND SLEEPING PILLS TO SLEEP IN THIS APARTMENT. THIS IS HOW THE OWNER HERSELF DEALS WITH LIVING THERE.
It is listed as a 2-bedroom apartment that sleeps 7. She charges an extraordinary amount (250 a night on the off season), which leaves you to believe it is as described, a TWO-bedroom apartment. BEWARE. This is a studio apartment with two mattresses that are located behind two doors... that cannot be closed due to the fact that you cannot control the heat. (And in the summer the air conditioner is in the sitting area...so you wouldn't be able to close the door then, either. There is a crappy futon in the sitting area, and she describes the "living room" with chairs that cannot be seen in the pictures she posts. (The "chairs" are two hard plastic chairs... no place to sit and relax and plan your next day... She leaves you to believe that the apartment is bigger than it is. It is probably about 400 square feet... and it is not a 2 bedroom. VERY DECIEVING! She is not an honest person. She cannot be trusted to do the right thing.
We paid for 4 nights, but the first night it was 85 degrees in the apartment, WITH the windows opened, AND the window AC running. The NOISE OUTSIDE the apartment coming from the downstairs bar was unbearable. It went on until 5 in the morning. Even with the windows closed, it was as if there was a party in the living room. Yelling and screaming ALL NIGHT. There were 3 of us... we are in our 50's and did not get one bit of sleep. We left first thing in the morning, after being in touch via text all night. Be aware that once she gets the money from people she informs you that she will not answer her phone.. At one point she texted that us she was putting in earplugs and taking a sleeping pill…which made us realize that she should advertise that sleeping pills and earplugs are needed to rent ON YOUR VACATION…We asked her to work with us to give us a partial refund. She lead us on all weekend, pretending she was trying to work things out, but in the end she refused There are many complaints about her on the Internet... through Craigslist, as well as many other complaint sites. Please do not give this woman your money. She ripped us off of 950.00!
