It was a little unclean, whilst stripping the bed I could see the mattress cover was dirty, the furniture is old, the quilt cover had patches covering holes, the sofas very hard and uncomfortable. The biggest bedroom was not liveable. It smelt very badly of damp and is not healthy for someone to be breathing in, so I had to sleep in the small room that is ridiculously small, you have to open and shut the door to get into the bed behind it. The steps to the garden wouldn't pass health and safety as it needs a handrail particularly as the patio light wasn't working! The grass hadn't been cut, which I know can be difficult at this time of year, but it hadn't been cut for a while and was absolutely covered with leaves to the point that I had to follow my dog around with a pooh bag as I had no chance of finding it otherwise. And please don't say the usual line "you should have let us know during your stay so someone could have come and put this right", far too much to put right and I don't want to waste precious time of just a 3 night stay. On the last night, I also heard something moving in the side wall of the house, some wildlife or other!
