I’m slightly conflicted about Graham’s place. I’ll start with the positives first: it was lovely, the pictures do it justice and the patio is to die for when the Sun is shining down. The apartment is stylish, to Graham’s taste, but does have a slightly ‘run-down’ aesthetic as opposed to the vintage feel it was going for. Graham as a host was easy to communicate with, although wasn’t available when I was having trouble with the self-check in.
So, check in would’ve been easier if the picture for the safe was clear and circled the safe I needed to get to as there were two attached to the rail. The flat was organised but I would not class it as clean. As someone with OCD I was not happy the carpet was not properly vacuumed - I found 3 clumps of dirt/hair on the floor in the living space and one in the bedroom. I was also slightly shocked to find the bathroom was not clean at all - the toilet was filthy and I had to resort to cleaning it as soon as I got in. The sink had marks on them (unsure from what) and the shower had a couple of hairs on the floor with the drain pulled out and left to the side. I also found numerous blonde and grey hairs in the bed - be warned as the mattress will cause back pain. As someone who sleeps on a firm mattress I wasn’t too happy with the quality of sleep. The fridge also hadn’t been emptied and smelt from food that had gone off.
Overall, the flat was nice but needed a lot more attention given to the cleaning - I ended up checking out early to go elsewhere where I felt more comfortable.
