Good correspondence with booking my stay.
Arrival was smooth, no hiccups.
First 4 days were pleasant with Karen being a friendly host…
After 4 days I felt a vibe, a very cold and unfriendly vibe. As to why I have no idea. From this day on I went straight to my room (which has no privacy) locked the door n stayed there till the morning when leaving for work.
This was my routine from 14 June until 30 June….. I stayed a total of 25 days.
I stayed there on business, not pleasure, I found the continuous opening and closing of the kitchen door which is right at my door unacceptable. This door would be BANGED closed during the evening as well as ridiculous times at night and mornings, on one occasion @ 12h58 and the other one noted at 01h23. It was a daily irritation as I was also studying and having this during sleep or study time was too much.
No privacy at all, with kids, friends etc being able to peak into the room while there. I have children of my own and love kids running around laughing and crying etc. When u can’t open your door for fear of everyone peeking into your room, I find it wrong.
No comforts in the room, sadly I found it to be filthy… I had agreed to the cleaning lady being there on the first Monday, but after failing to be as clean from the start as I am used to, I opted to bring my own bedding, duvet, pillows and cleaning cloth and Clean Green.
The Duvet supplied was no more than an old, compact 1cm thick blanket… the pillows were mismatched, the blanket was horrific - a chemical spill or burn showed when I unfolded it. It was also NOT clean as hair were found on it.
The mattress protector had stains on it as well as hair. Filth, old serviettes and compact old dust was sandwiched between wall and “bed”. The bed was a base - no cover over it.
The bathroom and room border on each other, but no concertina door provided just even for no draft while showering.. the bathroom bin still had previous visitors rubbish in, as well as a men’s shampoo left on window sill. The walls are covered in mould…
It is an icy cold and sterile room, no mats are provided at bed, cold air rushing in under door and a draft leak at the window.
Feeling unwelcome, I had no way of heating any food for these freezing cold nights, resorting to having meals delivered instead.
Upon moving out at end of month this rooms floors, counter and basin as well as toilet were cleaned and bin emptied by myself .
As to staying there again or referring anyone there - NEVER
Pictures can be provided as to proof of filth etc.
