All in all the house was clean, well presented, tasteful and fitted with all the appropriate amenities for small groups and families.
With this being said, there were a few things myself and guests noticed. When getting set up in our rooms, we noticed linen bags in the rooms. We assumed these had been accidentally left out by cleaning staff, however upon further inspection realised there were instructions to accompany to strip our own linen. Seeing as we had already paid an additional $225 to have linen available on top of our $1512 original price for 2 nights, we were a little taken back. Had of this cost been factored into the stay myself and guests wouldn’t have even noticed and it would have left a much better impression.
Likewise, additional fee’s for putting away all dishes etc seemed a little bit questionable - when myself and guests left the property, all dishes were put into the dishwasher to be washed (as we would graciously do in any property that is not our own), but we were not waiting around an hour for the cycle to finish to unpack.
Another general observation; in all AirBnBs (bed and breakfasts) that we’ve stayed in, they have always come with some niceties, especially those at higher price points. An additional $10 spent on milk, butter, muesli etc would have more than sufficed.
All in all, we enjoyed our stay with friends. However given the above points we would unfortunately endeavour to look at alternative, more hospitable, accommodation options on our next stay in Queenscliff. I hope this general feedback is received well and in a constructive manner.
