A few issues. 1 the kitchen cupboards and the fridge were still stocked with open foods. 2 we met the cleaner who was very nice but for the size of the property I do not believe this can be done properly with only one person,I am sure she does her best with the task in hand. 3 the showers need replacing and the place needs an uplift. Overall quite disappointing and we spent our first day cleaning and making space for our own shopping. We would not consider a return.
