Review Score:   6
Summary: I wanted to mark this property higher, because Max was very friendly in his messages before check-in and from the photos, I assumed the property was 'squeaky clean' as mentioned on the site. However, from the significant soiled mark on the window blind in the main room, to a shower that needs a good scrub, to the skirting boards that haven't seen a vacuum, let alone a cleaning cloth, I don't know how this property has been rated so high on past reviews. Also,there is only enough seating for 4 ppl (not 6) and a bar fridge only big enough for 2 ppl for a week
