Black Bold, Poor Management
Unfortunately, we did not enjoy our stay. The property showers and kitchen have quite a bit of black mold, which was very concerning. The washing machine was broken when we arrived and had a towel full of mold inside. We had a very difficult time getting through to management. When we finally did get though, the manager set up a time to come the next day at 3:00. We waited around from 2:30 onwards and nobody showed up. Nobody called or wrote saying they couldn’t come. Half a day of vacation wasted. The next day, we talked to management in the afternoon. They said they would try and send someone later that day and then informed us that they had already sent someone at 9:00 in the morning that day and nobody answered. Two people were at home and downstairs preparing breakfast at that time and heard nobody. One person stayed home until afternoon hoping to have the washer fixed and nobody came. It didn’t add up and really put a damper on our holiday. Management seemed more concerned that we felt they were not being honest than that they wasted our time and our vacation. Talked over us, constantly interrupting. We ended up fixing the washer ourselves.

OK but improvements needed
The house has been tastefully renovated, but the owners need to tackle a few issues. The interior was very clean, but the windows are in desperate need of cleaning, as is the tiny "patio". Taps in the 1st floor basin and kitchen sink are loose. The blind in the 1st floor bathroom is filthy ,perhaps caused by mildew. It is also not wide enough, meaning neighbours can see you showering. As someone else mentioned you cannot open the front door, which is a fire hazard if there is a fire in the kitchen.
