Remember It is not a motel; it's my home and just rent out rooms sometimes to off-set the high cost of home ownership. Guests have described my rates are very reasonable for such nice, spacious accommodation so close to the City.
Response to review: This woman is a liar. She just wanted me to agree to a refund in return for a good review. And the evidence was she stayed for a period, contrary to her comment “We had to leave immediately”. I would further describe comments such as : "The entire property was old and shabby in the extreme.; "every surface covered in dust, dirt and grime.; "there is no way in any universe this property had been cleaned in years" as a complete lie. My daughter and her friend spent hours cleaning the place before hand as I was away. And it was very clean on my return. The house may be old but was 80% renovated inside in 2022 and new carpets after that. SO, I don't recommend anyone rent their home to this vile woman Madeleine Easton at all.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine and an ironing board.

This property was an absolute disaster. It was old and shabby in the extreme. We had to leave immediately upon arrival as there was an awful smell inside. I discovered the source of the smell in a kitchen bin which had not been emptied. It contained a rotting dog bone and meat offcuts covered in maggots. The owner refused to take responsibility for it and refused to refund us, making every excuse under the sun why he could not. The entire property was old, every surface covered in dust, dirt and grime. There were flies everywhere due to the rotting meat in the kitchen. I felt unsafe touching any surface in there. The owner insisted that the property had been cleaned but there is no way in any universe this property had been cleaned in years. Please no one stay there
