Hello
Mark Jonkhof
I understand that you were upset, as you booked and paid for the Villa for 6 guests (reservation HMXSFMD82M) and in the guest identification data you presented there were 8 people, plus two people, that the reservation you made, you were asked for an additional amount per guest, for night (as stated in the ad) (he didn't like it)
Of course he had to pay the difference, (he didn't like it), and the MUNICIPALITY OF MAFRA charges TOURIST TAX, (he also didn't like it) which we are forced to charge from guests and then deliver to the CAMARA (it's not our fee)
He didn't like it, and left a negative review (3 stars), but in this house it is very difficult for mold to appear, the house is very ventilated, and has 15cm brick walls + 10cm air cushion with insulation + another 13cm brick wall , plus plastering and external painting plus traditional plastering and stucco and internal painting, (so 40cm external wall with insulation) then it is almost impossible for mold to appear. In relation to the neighboring houses, in one lives a teacher, (the house you say abandoned) who is responsible for teaching at an official school in Ericeira, and in the other lives a couple where Mrs. is a Veterinary doctor, , sometimes, not always, there are dogs at home (I have already asked her to take care of the dogs and clean the terrace).
I understand that you didn't like paying for the differences, but when you made the reservation you should have made it for 8 people and not 6.
There is no reason to give a negative rating (3 stars) when it states that the entire description of the ad is correct,
and when 99% of guests (who don't want to deceive us) give us (5 stars), for the cleanliness, location, 5 bathrooms, 2 suites, 2 porches, 1 terrace, spectacular view of the sea, private pool, games room, large fully equipped kitchen, check-in reception, and all other conditions that the house has), as you can see in the house reviews
You are welcome to report which room in the house smells musty.
