The crux of this review is that this place used to be great, and once the owners carry out some much needed cleaning and restoration of this place, I’m sure it’ll be great again. Full disclosure: after sending AirBnb photos I took of this place, I obtained a full refund for my booking. I know when a home is rented out via Airbnb, it’s really easy to take it personally when guests don’t like the place, or it isn’t up to external standards. It’s really easy for a host to snap back at less than ideal reviews, and blame the guest, but in this case, we didn’t even end up staying 5 more minutes after we walked in. I know the host is a good human being, and I’ve stayed in this place so happily in 2017. I hope with all good intentions and energy that the host takes this off the platform, improves the house, engages a thorough cleaner, tidies the place, repairs the bench tops properly, fixes the stairs, and puts this place back up. It really is the epitome of quirky-cool and when it’s all ready to go again, the location is fantastic, the host is a good person, and the adventures you can have from this place are endless. I’m so heartbroken that things have slipped, but I’m sure it’ll be back up to scratch with just a few months of hard work, a little paint and sandpaper, and a bit more attention to detail!
