Disliked: Cleanliness
Great potential but needs a really good cleaning.
Great potential but needs a really good cleaning. Check-in was very easy and the owner was extremely responsive. We had some requests regarding short falls in the kitchen and she was there immediately the first evening with the additional cutlery and a new coffee pot. A few days later she returned as we requested a teapot and can opener and she also brought additional dish towels and cleaning cloths.. She could not have been nicer. However, we expressed our opinion that the house was rather dirty and she was rather dismayed. She does the cleaning herself. She felt the cleaning was adequate and offered to come and re-mop the floors. We declined this however as the issue was not so much remopping the floors. The areas around much of the baseboards were quite dirty with old hairs and dirt on the floor and in the corners of the bathroom.The bathtub and showers are old and needed a more thorough clean. There were cobwebs in some of the corners in the kitchen and the stovetop grill and walls/cupboards around the stove were soiled with old cooking residue and grease.
We are sorry we cannot give this house a better rating as the house itself is quite attractive with great amenities and the owner was very helpful. It just needs a really good professional clean to bring it up to standard.
