The house was filthy before our arrival. It turns out that the cleaners had only come in to change the sheets only - there was no vacuuming prior to our arrival, the garbage was left on the premises, there were chicken bones strewn through the outdoor patio and loungeroom, there was hair from previous tenants all over both bathrooms and finally, there were large sticky patched on the tiled areas that were covered in ants.
Furthermore, the toilet door handle was jammed open, and the fan/light fitting was broken - it didn't even have a lightbulb in it.
After contacting the host, they sent another cleaner around while we were out for the day, and they barely did any better. The chicken bones and cigarette butts were swept into the woodchip in the back yard and the bathrooms remained uncleaned,
After contacting them a second time, they said that they had sent a cleaner around *again*, but later told me over the phone that this did not actually happen. House remained filthy for our stay.
