Be warned - this property at $232 per night was NOT value for money the VIEW - IS beautiful - however, we found the property in such as state of uncleanliness - that within 10 minutes - we considered finding alternative accommodation.
We were also assured by the host (who met us at the property when we called her - and, did the cleaning herself) - that a refund for the cleaning fee was a fair compensation for the inconvenience of the property as we found it.
The filthy state of the washing machine & dishwasher, which were unusable during the course of of our stay, caused further disruption to our right to our enjoyment of the property as we did not want any additional incursions to our privacy to have these cleaned as well.
We arrived to a filthy and unacceptable state - of the bathroom & toilet, kitchen, fridge/freezer, toaster, hob, rubbish bin, oven and floors. There was a broken outside light & a window as well as crockery and glassware in the cupboards, no sun shelter, no wifi (which we didn't realise - but coped with). We didn't dare use the barbecue.
The beds were comfortable - something positive.
No-one would expect to have to have the host clean the property in your time - or when requesting a refund of the cleaning fee - be wrongly informed that we had paid a cleaning fee of $75 and that this would be refunded (we reiterated that we had paid $194 Cleaning fee & a Service fee of $217.48) We were offered a voucher of $100 in compensation for the inconvenience and loss of right to enjoyment of the property.
While this goes some way to compensate for the disruption - we are wary & very reluctant to use Batchcare in the futuere.
