Unfortunately, the beautiful setting was significantly marred by what we found in the house, and the host’s lack of response when we highlighted the issues.
The downstairs toilet had poo around the bowl, the sofa and lounging chairs were extremely stained and greasy, parts of the house were dusty, there was mould on the curtains, shower curtain and a basket-weave doorstop. Sheets and pillowcases had yellow staining, and when we went looking for cleaner linen on beds we weren’t going to use, we discovered extremely disgusting stained pillows, and a mattress with mould and stains. In the kitchen, we missed a tin-opener and the coffee maker water container had green algae. The pots and pans had burnt-on food, and there weren’t any cleaning items to deal with such burnt-on issues.
The owner made no effort to engage in these issues nor offer a solution. The one issue they did try deal with (freezer missing parts and not working properly), they arrived unexpectedly and without warning.
