Natasha did try and make us feel welcome but, unfortunately, her comment that "the place does need renovating" proved to be absolutely correct. I can also understand why the furniture (as advised by Natasha) was left there by the previoius owner.
We knew the unit would be old but did NOT expect it to be decrepit - a mouldy shower, many hued, flaking walls and worse of all, dirt and dust. We discovered toys in both the sofas and a pair of old shoes under one of them! Certainly not well cleaned.
The bathroom sink was so small we both had difficulty even washing our hands, let alone cleaning our teeth.
In the kitchen, the grill was filthy and the bin not emptied; there wasn't even a plug for the sink. The toaster and jug had to stay on the top of the fridge as this was the only power point we could find.
The only reason I have given the unit one star is I couldn't find a way to give it none!
