Jun 6, 2022 Liked: Check-in, location Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, listing accuracy #### Not what we expected Unfortunately, for the amount of money we spent, and the photos of the property, we didn't quite get what we expected. There was cat pee, poo, and fur on the floor. Numerous dead flies in the sun room and other rooms. Pink mould in the door runner of the ensuite shower. Flat batteries in tv remote. Vacuum cleaner absolutely filthy with clay like substance and allot of hair. Dishwasher filter was disgustingly dirty, and only one powder sachet available for a 3 night stay. The laundry facilities were marked as private, even though we paid to use them, and the washing machine filter was over full, it left grey greasy marks on the small amount of clothes that we washed. Overall, would not recommend, if you're a clean person ##### Myles W.
