When we arrived, the person cleaning was just finishing (1 person for this very large property). I asked her to stay while I did a really quick run through, which she kindly obliged. It looked ok so we unloaded and started to get settled. Unfortunately, as we began to settle in and use the property, we found several things that caused this property to be less than great.
1) Not enough towels per bathroom (1 hand towel/2 people??) nor towel racks to hang towels on.
2) The towel rack in the queen bedroom, bath upstairs is bent as someone must have used it as a handle.
3) A screen door (one on the left when facing the deck from the living room) was ripped out at the bottom.
4) The carpet, in a word, is horrible. After we opened the curtains and blinds and let light in, it was readily apparent that this carpet was well used. It is pretty disgusting to be frank and we spent more than an hour or so spot cleaning it ourselves just so it was more pleasant.
5) The mattresses were so used that they dipped in the middle and were incredibly uncomfortable, in the queen room upstairs and the master down stairs. I ended up sleeping on the couch one night and eventually moved to the other queen downstairs and my husband stayed alone in the queen upstairs and slept diagonally so he didn't roll into the middle.
6) When starting to cook breakfast on the first morning, I pulled out 3 pans that had severely caked on egg and one pan that was dirty with heavy grease. Disgusting. I assume what happened is some prior guests put unrinsed pans in the DW, ran it and left and housekeeping simply unloaded without paying any attention as to whether the pans were actually cleaned. It was pretty bad. I scrubbed them all clean, so we wouldn't get charged for leaving unclean dishes.
7) Light bulb above stove top, under microwave, not working. Not a huge thing, but just one more thing that could be easily corrected.
8) The house got SUPER HOT during the day, with the south facing windows. Not something that can be easily corrected I understand, but it was pretty uncomfortable on the main level during the day.
9) The shower and sink drains in the upstairs queen BR-bath, did not drain well and would fill during shower and/or washing at sink.
10) No A/C.
The kitchen very well appointed. The pool table was great. Location was nice and the downstairs deck was nice since it was covered so much cooler.
