I'm an agent with a lady and her baby and you cannot refuse renting your room to a lady with a child and by the way the bed in one room would have to go in storage from the looks of the pic to make room for the baby's crib, walker, etc.Usually the calls go on with the caller repeating their scripted quotes and how refusal to show them our room will result in visits from 'officials' and charges filed etc.. all within a total call duration of just 1-2 mins or so (while we reiterate we're not okay with co-ed bathrooming in our household, nor making modications as we're probably relocating after graduation).Of course, we are compassionate about persons with disabilities but since when did offering a spare room or two in our own household turn into some sort of implied legal 'boxing ring' climate?
