Aug 12, 2020 Liked: Check-in, communication, location Disliked: Cleanliness #### Over priced, under delivered, mice in the house, very disappointing. Very disappointing visit to this expensive holiday home which promised so much in the photos but did not deliver. Main points you should be aware of if you are considering renting this home - - it is not one large home but rather two flats on separate floors, with two small kitchens and living areas. If you are hoping there is a large, modern kitchen and a big communal living area that can accommodate two families on the ground floor think again. You can't open the dishwasher door and cupboard drawers at the same time, as the kitchen is so small and poorly designed. - the house wasn't properly cleaned, there were cobwebs in the rooms. The upstairs bathroom shower waste didn't drain and flooded the bathroom on the first night and when the grate was removed it revealed a waste pipe clogged with hair and grime - the house was riddled with mice, which ate clothes and canvas bags including food on the kitchen bench. - underneath the sofa was lots of dust, grime, mice droppings and other rubbish - the pool isn't heated and was absolutely freezing so we weren't able to use it in July - the house is near the freeway and the sound of traffic is very loud, so much so that the pool man said they keep the pool pump going all the time to try to drown out the noise so guests don't notice - for the price you would expect some additional equipment such as bikes, or beach chairs, an umbrella or other such things. - have stayed in many houses in Byron over the years and were most disappointed by this one ##### Melinda H. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2020
