The architectural design of the home is magnificent. The kitchen is modern and fully equipped. The home movie theater in the basement was a treat. The plentiful outdoor spaces are serene. If you’re a yoga enthusiast, you will have a dilemma over which area is best to practice as there are so many picturesque spaces to utilize. Unfortunately the home wasn’t as clean as it should have been, especially considering the price. The host did offer to send the cleaning crew back to address the cleanliness issues, but at that point it would have been unnecessarily intrusive. The house is pretty big, so it’s easy to miss areas that may have been overlooked by the cleaning crew.
After being walked through the house, the caretaker vacated the premises and we discovered a half eaten piece of cake on the kitchen counter, a used bath towel in the closet, dirty rags in the kitchen and multiple unwashed bath mats. The sheets in the master bedroom were also questionable as I discovered crumbs in them on our first night and there’s no way they came from us. Despite these inconveniences we enjoyed our stay. I used the washing machine to clean the questionable linens myself and we moved on with our trip. My suggestion to future guests is that you examine the premises very carefully during the initial walk through to ensure your comfort.
