Furnished Finders, Inc.

I recently rented an apartment from "Furnished Finders" aka Sonia Sanguinetti. This woman pretends that she is an employee for Furnished Finders when in fact she is the founder and only employee of this company. I've taken vacation rentals for over 20 years and this was by far the worst experience I have ever had.

The unit looked much better in photos. In actuality was outdated, crammed with dirty, old, stained furniture, damaged counter top, table & torn blinds. The outdoor furniture was missing seat cushions. I felt ripped off paying a premium of $2800 for a 30 day rental. I found instructional post-it notes all around the apartment, for example "Do not open" on the window. It was very hot and the AC was broken. There were cockroaches running in and out of the bathroom and swarms of ants in the kitchen. I found blood stained women's underwear laying outside the apartment door. The elevator didn't work properly.

Sonia Sanguinetti was extremely unprofessional. She was apparently holding numerous open houses at the apartment rental during my stay. On one occasion I'd made myself available to be at the apartment for a scheduled meeting which she cancelled about 30 minutes after not showing up. On a separate occasion she requested I be at the apartment in the evening so she could "bring someone by", who turned out to be a series of families inspecting and photographing the entire place while I was there. Before they arrived, Sonia specified to me, "when they get here just act like you're my friend", which had me feeling extremely uncomfortable about the situation. Another evening, completely unannounced, I answered a knock at my door to find 2 women & a young child ask to come into the apartment to have a look around. When Sonia arrived I complained it inappropriate to bring strangers without my consent. Her excuse was "I called you but you didn't answer".

I will never again rent from "Furnished Finders" aka Sonia Sanguinetti and I recommend you do the same.
