Aug 27, 2025 Liked: Location Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, listing accuracy Nous avons passé un beau séjour en famille. Critiques constructives : 1 - en entrant entre les 2 portes à l’entrée, il y avait un nid de guêpes que l’on a détruit car ma petite fille est très allergique. 2 - seulement des fin de rouleaux de papier de toilette dans les 3 salles de bain. 3 - pas de sac de vidange dans les poubelles. 4 - pas de linges à vaisselle pour essuyer la vaisselle. 5 - BBQ et aussi les ustensiles extrêmement sales. On a dû laver le BBQ et ustensile avant l’utilisation. La brosse pour nettoyer le BBQ est complètement fini à jeter. Le manche de la spatule du BBQ est cassé. 6 - Il y a seulement 2 verres à vin pour 8 personnes. 7 - pas de passoire pour les pâtes, pas de couteau à pain, pas de petit couteau à légumes et pas de couteaux pour cuisiner à part 2 couteaux carrés. 8 - Nous avons chercher les serviettes et débarbouillettes avant d’avoir vos instructions. 9 - Propreté laisse à désirer, les fenêtres et porte patio sont sales et pleines de toile d’araignée. 10 - Les savons à main étaient presque vides. 11 - Le parasol bleu est très déchiré et ne tient plus sur son socle, très dangereux. 12 - Le parfum d’ambiance trop prononcé. Malgré tout, nous avons eu beaucoup de plaisir tous ensembles. Vous avez une magnifique maison qui manque un peu d’amour… ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/cb4c3c25-d091-4871-b6f4-940d93d8d0c3-1756329703834.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Danielle L.
