11. Beware of Jeff Glovsky, OFFMAR LLC, Sun Sexy Platinum Services- SCAM ARTIST


Do NOT rent from this man. He will take your LARGE security deposit and will not pay you back. He is running a business to scam people out of their money. But we wont let him. Jeff has several listing on craigslist through offmar or sunsexyplatinum, he had to change his name because all the people he has screwed caught up to him. He is the poorest excuse for a businessman that I have ever seen, a total scam artist. I just want my money back

12. Beware of Jeff Glovsky, OFFMar, Sun Sexy Platinum


I rented an apartment from Jeff Glovsky in August of 2008 and have yet to receive the refundable security deposit from him. I have contacted him via phone, email and text over the last year and a half and have been told that the "money is on the way." And now, he will not return any of my emails and cannot be reached at the phone numbers he provided.

13. Se Loger New York - Vacation Home Rentals


Rented a one bedroom we found on vacationrentals.com which was maintained and owned by Se Loger New York. My complaint is that the apartment was not even close to what was represented. I tried to file a customer review several times and they will not post it. I don't want anyone else to go through what we went through on a special weekend. It is a fifth floor apt with no elevator. There were no blankets for any of the beds in the apartment. We were freezing. The beds were extremely uncomfortable and we were woken up at 5 am by the loading dock across the street. The price is good, but you get what you pay for. DO NOT stay here!

15. Rudeness and Disrespect


I only inquired about the property, but was given a very rude response. I received a call from a property manager, who smugly laughed and told me I'd selected the most expensive property. I said that was fine, I only wished to see what was available, if any, on the resort during a specified time. I was told there was nothing available for that weekend, to which I responded that I had no flexibility b/c I was coming up for the triathlon. The manager laughed again and said that I should have thought about that a year ago as all the other people booked a year in advance and that I would never find a place within 20 miles of Geneva during that time. He continued to lecture me on better planning etc. I told him I only recently signed up for the triathlon, tho I did compete last year and know the area well. He continued to lecture on my poor planning, to which I said, "thank you for not being any help sir, have a nice day" and hung up. I then received an incredibly rude email from the individual, who refuses to walk away. I have never experienced such nonprofessional behavior, and wish to warn others about the property management.

16. Different from advertisement


This house has a dangerous tall and long stairway to the lake, its the only way down there, someone in our party tripped near the top step and luckily did not fall all the way to the bottom.
The property is advertised as secluded in 200 acres but it share that land with several other homes and cottages of their extended family members.
The house has low ceilings and anyone who is tall will need to duck around doorways and other objects. It's an old house in need of some newer things, maybe that is what their after, the look of the 1950's interior decorating.

17. Home Away won't post negitive review


When we had problems with this rental and Mr Sapp the owner Home Away would not post my complaint. Saying that I did not send them enough proof that we had stayed in the unit. I sent them my PayPal receipt, emails form Mr Sapp, Western Union receipt and photos. Don't deal with this company.They do not want to post a complaint because they collect fees from the rental units owners

18. Lamar Sapp/Home Away Vacation Rentals


I rented this apartment 9-24-11--10-05-11 from Lamar Sapp through Home Away Vacation Rentals. When we arrived we found that there was no towels in the apartment. There was nasty stains on the pillows and mattress pads.I don't even want to think about what bodily fluids caused the stains. We tried to get Mr Sapp to reply to our complaint with no response. I went out and purchased towels and a smoke detector. We did not feel comfortable sleeping in the apartment without a smoke detector, which was a good thing to buy because every night there would be cigarette smoke infiltrating our rental unit which was listed as a non smoking unit. There was a smell in the bathroom which we traced to a feces covered plunger by the toilet.The balcony was unusable because of the mildew covering the seating. There was no WI-FI or TV working which was in the listing as amenities.I had to make numerous requests for the return of my deposit and when I finally received it after the stated time frame in the contract and then not in full. When I asked Mr Sapp what the deduction was he never replied. Home Away would not post my complaint because they said that I didn't give them enough documentation to prove we stayed in the unit. The documentation I sent them, Pay Pal receipt for the full stay , cleaning and deposit, my emails from Mr Sapp and Western Union info concerning the return of my deposit and photos
