Disliked: Cleanliness
great stay in spite of misleading information - in key words:
• ad suggests direct access to a river yet the river is not accessible – there is no real path and the woods turn into a swamp
• ad states there is a ‘boat for two’, yet the boat it is a toy suitable for at most two children in the shed, two adults cannot use it, and one would have to transport the thing to the water
• no sitting opportunity outside – the shed there are dirty tables and chairs
• ad suggests a porch to sit to eat, yet it is not part of the actual holiday house.
• Ad states 6 sleeps, - there are four matrasses, two for singles (children) and two sized 140 cm x 200 cm – which are not suitable for adults (female 180 +/ male 186 +)
• matrasses are very old, hard and partly dirty with a slight unpleasant stench
• owner stated there had been problems with the cleaning woman – the house was partly not well cleaned.
• bathroom is ok, yet there was no hot water – neighbours callled a plumber - the first two days we had no hot water.
• entrance door leads directly into bathroom,– there is no other door to exit/enter the house which can be uncomfortable
• ad states that kitchen is ‘fully equipped’ which is a euphemism for a very basic set-up: stove with three pits of which only two could be used at the same time because it is too small
• refrigerator has size of 1 ½ mini bars
• no freezer
• no oven
• bin has size of bathroom bin
• coffee machine was broken
• pots and pans (from the 1950s) could be replaced - were dirty, had to be washed before usage)
• ad suggests sofa in the living room – there is none, neither are the cupboard and the big carpet from the pictures there: negative impact on coziness
• apart from two big chairs, there are only two dining table chairs
• stair case to upper floor is very steep – not suitable for little children and older people, simply dangerous
• everywhere in the house small plates with blue ant poison in the open – take care with small children who put stuff in their mouth
• old front door entrance cannot be opened
• Upon arrival waste container stood full at the side of the road - it reamined full for 2 weeks
• container is very small – we had to store waste at front entrance – asked, the owner explained that we could dispose it behind local supermarket – there were bigger containers monitored by cctv - it was not the intention that individuals dispose their waste there – locals confirmed that it is not allowed –
• no barrels to split waste
• no folder with explanations about house
