This house is in a great location, 5 mins walk to the shops and foreshore. However, there were several missing touches that could take this place from basic to fantastic. The bed sheets were cheap, thin and worn, with no top sheet or mattress protectors. Quilts needed an upgrade, were of average quality and need to be one size bigger for the beds. The spare quilt we used was stained.
The kitchen was missing items like oil, salt, dishwashing liquid and tea towels and the bathroom had no hand soap. Towels were not supplied (as listed on the ad) and we brought our own.
Blinds were damaged in the bedroom and didn’t close properly letting in lots of light in the mornings.
Communication with the host was minimal, with no email advising of access to the property. We had to message/phone when we got there and wait for a response to find out the code for the key box.
This house was basic, but within our budget which we were pleased with. We had a great time anyway, lots of potential and with a bit more attention to detail this place could be beautiful.
