Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
Very disappointed as misleading description of listing and poor cleanliness throughout the entire place. Cottage is actually a portable cabin with paper thin walls and a lot of movement when moving around inside. Private garden not very private with being surrounded by two story houses and see through fencing. Children's beds only suitable for young children, our older son(11) struggled on the narrow mattress. Not enough cups/plates for 5 people and not even a bare minimum on utilities in the kitchen. Basic soaps..you get a watered down hand soap, no shower gel or body soap.. nothing. Towels brand new, yay. But still had plastic tags on them, weren't wash before and therefore not absorbed of anything. Damp mouldy smell throughout with visible mould in two of the 'bedrooms'. Pet hair all over the place, even on kitchen stove and worst all over the main bedrooms bedding, pillows and even on spare blankets in closets. Shower with mould growing in all colors but according to host it's all clean and no mould. Concerns to listing page had been raised but no help provided. Host didn't like the complaint at all and been very defensive and lied into our faces. Managed to at least get a night refunded but was stuck there camping on the lounge floor as couldn't get replacement place for the night and VRBO/Bookabach customer service let us hanging without support. Only plus you really only just walk a minute or two to the beach. Do not recommend at all!
