Very disappointed. The place does not appear to have been cleaned properly in quite a while. All the venetian blind slats were dusty, the window sills were dirty, the bedside tables were all covered in dust and a sticky residue, glass table dusty, table mats still had food on them, kitchen work surface and oven front door looked as if they had been just wiped over with a dirty cloth. The whole house needs a thorough clean and the windows, window sills and door jambs need repainting. I had to clean all surfaces before putting anything on them, wash cutlery. No where to store food except the fridge. Most of the drawers in the kitchen need cleaning and the bathroom drawers had hair and debris. Not exactly hygienic.
We did contact the owner and she did apologise, but didn't respond to our request that someone came to clean the place. Whilst the work surfaces are now cleaner, I did not touch the blinds, window sills etc. That is not my job.
Considering the bad state of the place, it is not worth the rental fee as it stands and I feel that at least the cleaning fee we have paid should be refunded as the place had not been cleaned prior to arrival
