Two tales to tell.
One, when Peg Leg Pete's was located at their previous spot next to the water, we ate outside on the deck and saw a large rat run under the table next to us. Does nothing for dining ambience.
Two, woke up one morning and noticed that the butter we had left out was snacked upon. Later we actually saw one run across the living room floor of our apartment. It was large! Had maintenance set trap but no luck but they found the early sign of nest under the sofa. None of the staff at the Belair could relate to our reaction to the critters but ever since that occurrence we have noted that the pipes in the hall closet of all rooms are surrounded with sealant.
