Unfortunately we did not have a good stay. The room had not been cleaned when we arrived, and although the sheets were changed when we asked, there was a lot of dust in the room, roaches and the plates were dusty. The sheets had human hair on them and stains. Fresh sheets were welcomed!
We had only 4 tea bags, and so we asked for more which was kindly provided by the host, that was good. The breakfast was good. The host kindly took it upon himself to hose down my car, however I had not expected this to happen.
We were under the impression that the room was private and the space was free to come and go, however the hosts wanted more interaction. I was specifically uncomfortable having a knock on the door and the door tried to be opened while we were getting ready before breakfast on the first day. At the end of our stay that same thing happened again as we were trying to pack up and get ready and had several unwanted interruptions meaning we were only leaving the room at 10:02am.
The cleaner was extremely aggressive to us as we were leaving stating we had to be out at 10am sharp, and we had taken advantage of the host and that the host had even cleaned my car. I stated that this was not something I had expected and was done without my permission. Her aggressive tone really did Tim and Maggie’s kindness a disservice and ruined our stay. The aggressive tone of speech and approach out of the blue was threatening behaviour and very much not acceptable. We were treated very rudely by this person.
Given Covid is in the community, cleaning is even more important for guests at this time, unfortunately the room did not meet those government standards at the time of our stay.
For the amount paid, we were extremely disappointed. I had no reply to my communication around our stay or our desire for some privacy respected. Today, I can’t be recommending this stay to others.
I hope the feedback I provided was taken constructively and that the next guests will have a much better stay. The location was nice and close to town - walking distance from the Main Street.
