The house is in a great setting, private with views over Akaroa harbour. But… it was filthy. The air freshener smell wore to reveal an overpowering dirty/greasy smell which seemed to be coming from the couch, duvet cover and carpet. Smelt like I’d imagine a head of dirty old dreadlocks smells like.
A few other lowlights of note - hair (undreadlocked), dead bugs & food on the floors, an old wet towel hanging in the bathroom, and the barbecue looked more like a deep fryer that had never been cleaned.
Left feeling like I’d spent a few nights in a student flat.
