• "I have shared my thoughts with the owner by email while we were staying (you are welcome to have these too if you like)."

  However this is my feedback on the website details : 1) The downstairs main living space is very small for 4 adults - a single small kitchen/sitting area (there is no separate dining area). Describing this as the "true social hub of the home" is a bit of a joke. There is barely room to move, nowhere to hang coats, nowhere to store footwear, the dining table is barely big enough for 4 and the "plush" sofa is actually two small cheap tubular framed IKEA sofas with hard cushions, low backs and a throw. Whatever it is, it isn't plush (or remotely comfortable). 2) There is no washing machine despite it being listed 3) The "chosen chef" is going to be very disappointed in this property, the kitchen is extremely basic, and so space constrained there isn't even room to drain the dishes after washing up! A single person cafetierre and teapot is unlikely to satisfy a "group of friends"! 3) Roadside parking "out front of your delightful home" is misleading. The small one-way street is usually fully parked up, and there is only one (non allocated) roadside space outside the property. 4) The suggestion that guests "soak in your surroundings" might be a mistake. On the day we arrived, one house in the street was having replacement glazing since the front window had been bricked overnight. On our first night, passing drunks kicked at and broke the front door. The street has broken glass and dog mess, and in fact was so unpleasant in places we walked down the middle of the road! The property is in a terrace with 2 semi derelict buildings, and the yard behind the property is a dump of wrecked vehicles, waste building material, an abandoned toilet etc. We have photos if you would like to view the scenery! 5) the bedrooms would be more "inviting" if they had any furniture other than a bed and a clothes rail! There is not a single wardrobe or chest of drawers in the whole property, leaving guests little choice but to live out of their suitcase. In general, I would say this property should be classed as offering basic accommodation with a price that reflects this, is not suitable for groups with more than 2 people despite the number of bedrooms, and the description needs to be changed to reflect the reality of the property and the street rather than the "estate agent" speak!
