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
