Disliked: Cleanliness
Poorly maintained Driveway too overgrown for accessKitchen poorly equipped eg only 2 spoons Only light weight covers on beds with no backupNo disclosure that 2 bedrooms were accessible via a very narrow spiral staircase too dangerous to attempt.Doors didn’t close, knobs fell off, minimum safety standards for accommodation not met eg balcony railing, window screens.
The size of the house was great. Heating options were good. The actual house was tidy but very run down and dirty. There was dust behind the doors and dust and rubbish just swept under the bed in main room. There was hair and dust in corners of the bathroom. The fans were covered in dust. The staircase is a hazard and should be removed and redone. My daughter fell down then. Fortunately caught herself. The yard was unusable as it was very overgrown and weedy. The kids could not use the grassed area as there was dog Pooh everywhere, obviously from a past renter. My daughter actually stepped in some. Very obviously not maintained at all.

Great location
House is a little run down and the garden needs attention. This is the first impression upon arrival. Garbage bins were on the street and knocked over making the place look scrappy. The heating was excellent and the house lovely and roomy with plenty of storage. All the taps in the bathroom need new washers as they were really hard to turn off/on and the shower, whilst hot and powerful, leaked. It was a comfortable enough stay however the circular staircase to downstairs is very narrow and hard to negotiate and quite scary.
