The kick boards in the kitchen need anas falling down

There were a few minor maintenance issues, like the shower screen seal and loose baseboards in the kitchen. Also, it would've been helpful to have a broom, cleaning cloths, and hand soap. We had to buy our own which is unusual. We only had one tea towel for the week which meant we had to keep washing it.

Would have been nice to know there wasn’t a door on the upstairs bedroom. The bathrooms were not provided with soap and the upstairs shower is very difficult to get into, you have to be very slim.

Some things could have been a bit cleaner but overall nothing to improve.

The cleaning at the property lacks real attention to detail and sadly this lets it down. Towel rails in both bathrooms were dusty and dirty, there was low level dust and several sizeable cobwebs in corners. Hand towel and toilet roll holders were loose. In the kitchen there were crumbs under the microwave and behind the toaster on arrival and the oven didn't look like it had been cleaned. The dining chairs were wobbly and on inspection appear to be broken where the legs join the seat.
We particularly didn't appreciate all the rubbish and recycling that had been left outside from the previous tenants and more importantly the appalling state it was left in. We were between refuse collections which is fair enough but in the main bin there was a load of rubbish just chucked in loose and not bagged up. We bagged this up ourselves to avoid it being left behind in there by the collectors on rubbish day. The rubbish area was pretty disgusting to be honest and something the cleaners should have dealt with prior to our arrival. By the time we left there was no room in the recycling bag for new tenants arriving to use ... maybe applying a second bag would be a good idea?
Some hangers on the clothes rail upstairs would have been useful useful as would some side-table lighting in the lounge.
This could be a really super holiday home with just a bit more careful attention to detail.

Improvements I would say would be to fix the chairs in the kitchen as they are falling apart, the floor has a bit in living room that has a scuff that is sticking up and then just general fresh bit of paint on white walls as there is quite a few marks on the walls
