The property had everything I look for but ... I don't use plastic kettles & the cleaners use a product that leaves a mild smell in the unit, akin to a cheap perfume. I can't see why we need to fill our living spaces with the odour of artificial (chemical) scents - bottom line, they are toxic. What is wrong with fresh air ? Luckily it was mild and having windows open mitigated the use of such products.
