Beautiful home, but not in the heat. Cleaning complaint left a bad taste.
Dream garden, wonderful home that is thoughtfully appointed, all in a lovely neighborhood. We had a great stay apart from two notable exceptions.
First, no climate control upstairs. A lack of air con or fans made the kitchen and main lounge unusable for the two warm days of our trip.
Second, after departure, the owner scolded me to clean up after myself. We respected the place. On departure, we cleaned for hours, no filth, no damage, things put away. We left recycling on the kitchen counter. In a house filled with sustainable living books, I thought this was respectful. I was mistaken.
That said, after spending thousands in rent and hundreds in cleaning fees, I don’t think it is too much to ask the cleaner to take out the recycling. I resent being treated as an ungrateful house guest. I think paying customers can expect some service. The sweaty days I can give a pass – the attitude put me off.
