The property did not appear to be fully prepared for new guests.The grass had grown to knee height, the garbage had not been taken out, and several areas of the home were not clean. The shower had not been properly cleaned, the microwave contained extensive baked-on food splatter, and a dirty sock had been left behind from a previous guest. The shower was missing a curtain, the dishwasher had a sign indicating it was not to be used, and there was a persistent stale, cigarette-like odour throughout the house.While none of these issues alone ruined our stay, together they gave the impression that the property had not been thoroughly cleaned or checked before arrival.The home met our needs, but the cleanliness, maintenance, and overall presentation were below expectations. With greater attention to housekeeping and preparing the property between guests, this could have been a much better experience.
