Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy
Lack of attention to detail and weird design flaws made my interior experience mostly unpleasant. Lovely flat though, great location. First gripe: Expedia/Vrbo/My Property Host relationship. Expedia email: "You're going to York!" I click "My Bookings": You have no bookings. The booking triggered the email! Immediate stress, hours on phone.. Fatal flaw: no fan. Hot, stagnant air. I was told with an apologetic laugh, no fans in York. Easy fix: Routinely stock fans. Next best thing: cross-ventilation. Impossible in L-shaped flat. It got cool outside. Flat still hot, no way to move air. Slept on sofa cushions dragged to balcony. Wall controls for heating unit but no way to run fan only. Found conflicting WiFi passwords. Neither worked. Realized after using loo that I couldn't reach toilet roll from toilet. On a peg is fine. This was a high spike. Coffee, tea displayed. No milk, opened my own. Then found milk pods in fridge. Those are usually left out. Or use a sign: Milk in fridge. Mini ice cube tray, 10 mini cubes. 2 br flat. Really? Nice bathtub. Slippery. Controls at standing height a hazard. Consider grab-bars or anti-slip mat. User guide not thought out. Mini-map a blob. Why no real map with some street names? Said call MPH in an emergency. Flat-related sure. Real emergency, call 999. No instructions for all-icon washer/dryer. Hours wasted trying to get Wi-Fi, do laundry. Slept outside. In loo, dripped pee to reach roll. Tub a hazard. Attention to detail nil.
