Fint men eftersatt och behöver lite kärlek
Huset var något eftersatt gällande underhåll och städning. Med små medel skulle man kunna få det riktigt fint, så det är synd att man inte lägger ner lite tid på det.
Tex så var parasollet sönderblåst så det kunde vi inte använda på hela vistelsen, bordet på uteplatsen saknade en mutter så bordet var väldigt ostadigt, lådorna i köket behövde rengöras från smulor och kladd, vissa glas och bestick såg inte rena ut, kontakterna vid sängen var riktigt smutsiga med kaffe stänk och kassaskåpet fungerade inte.
Inga stora saker egentligen men drar ändå ner en hel del på intrycket vilket är synd.
Om ägaren lade ner lite tid på att fixa det och rengöra huset ordentligt (inte bara på ytan) så skulle det bli riktigt bra!
