Communication before we arrived was very good. Pierre’s place was lovely on the inside. Exactly as it is in the pictures. There was tea and coffee in the press and soap in the showers.
The outside areas were poor-they need a clear up as they were pretty messy and loads of ants.
Obviously a fault of the cleaning company but when we arrived there was no silverware until we found most of the ware in the dishwasher. I think a bit ridiculous to be expected to pay a €110 cleaning fee to have to empty the dishwasher when we arrived.
Despite contacting Pierre when booking to check if he could supply a travel cot there was no travel cot when we arrived and my 11 month old baby had to sleep on a make shift bed made from blankets and suitcases on the floor. Pierre delivered a travel cost at 7pm the next day and while I appreciate he assumed there was a cot there, as a host his job should have been to check it was there before we arrived. I even had the owner of the Local bar (Harry’s Daughter- which is a fab place) trying to source a cot for me as I had no reply to any of my messages all day. Thankfully he had a new one delivered after a very stressful day of waiting.
Again, not in Pierre’s control I’d imagine, but important for future guests to know that the upstairs neighbours, while quiet, smoke weed/marijuana and the smell when you enter the hallway is pretty overwhelming. For someone who comes from a society where that is not legalised yet, the smell is pretty vile.
The place is Close to local transport links and the local bar at the end of the street, Harry’s Daughter, does great Caribbean food.
Overall an OK stay.
