Not clean

On arrival we were unable to access the key from the safe with the code we were given and had to contact the owner. Fridge and worktops were dirty the floor hadn't been mopped and was sticky .This was very disappointing as there is meant to be extra cleaning with covid!!!. The plugs in both the sinks and the bath didn't work.Every time you make a slice of toast or open the oven door the smoke alarm goes off. Very disapointed with the standard of this property.
