We didn't see the host or hear from her whilst we were there. The location is fine and Sandy Bay is lovely. Without the deli next door it would not be a great as there is no other food stores close by.
I had assumed the host would read past reviews and action complaints so we chose it. She had not, here is the list.
-We had half a roll of toilet paper for 3 nights. Buying this should not be part of the deal.
-The house was dusty. Might be due to the 1950's vacuum or 40 year old carpet. If you have asthma or respiratory problems, don't stay here.
-We had 4 towels for 4 people. PLEASE supply a bath mat.
-The washing machine water hose was actually not connected. This involved up actually taking the whole thing out of a small space to connect it. Not an easy task.
-PLEASE fix the lock on the bathroom door. The door does not even close shut without one.
-The oven either takes 1 hour to heat a crumb or burns it.
-Only 1 tea towel is just unhygienic.
-The coffee table pictured would be a lot better than what's actually there. The table in the apartment is unsafe and NOT for small children.
-Why do you not have essential items there like cooking oil? Or even UHT milk. I am sure past people leave things. You have 3 pepper/salt grinders all empty. What's the point?
-You could supply a 'whats in your local area' map. Mention where a supermarket is or how to access the beach from the apartment.
-The road is very noisy. If that bothers you then this place is not for you.
