My full review is too long to post here. If you go to imgur and search “Luxurious” Villa Eureka MO, you can read it in entirety as well as see pictures that give a more accurate representation of the state of this rental. Please do, and then don't make the same mistake we did, thinking that the overall rating meant that it couldn't be that bad. The most important information to get across right here is that there is BLACK MOLD and the smell of standing water, which resulted in us experiencing headaches during our stay. It was dirty – the coffee table had crumbs, the refrigerator wasn’t wiped out (and was rusted), and there was a faint smell of smoke.
I believe most of the reviews are fake; notice how virtually every one mentions how wonderful Donna is? Why does everybody need to interact with the owner, and why would they all include these accolades in their reviews? I do not like to leave bad reviews (most people try to be nice, including the rather tame negative reviews from previous guests) but I sincerely believe that this rental should be removed from VRBO. I knew by the pictures that “luxurious” was a laughable description, but this place is a downright dump and the Super 8 Motel would have been cheaper and cleaner.
