There were pros and cons with Joan’s place. The pros: a nice large and comfortable house. It was easy to get to, had off street parking, a large kitchen for cooking meals, and a lovely backyard patio table to eat outside. The cons: being a bit of a germophobe, it was not as clean as I would have liked. A large cobweb in the corner of the bathroom, dusty areas, and would have liked the kitchen to be cleaner. One other issue we had was that the beds didn’t have upper sheets on them. There was a bottom sheet, then just a thick comforter on top. The comforters were so large and bulky that it seems unlikely that they were laundered after each use. We ended up sleeping in our clothes so as not to use the comforters. Maybe this is a New Zealand thing, not sure. Like I mentioned, I am a germophobe, so this might not bother others.
