This isn't serious, but again, I'm struggling with how to review a group of adults who left the place in less than wonderful condition. Here's what happened:
1) they didn't throw out the garbage as per my rules
2) they left some (not a lot) of dirty dishes in the sink--again not per my rules
3) they replaced, in the shelf, a bodum coffee maker that they had really not cleaned well--it was obviously not clean
4) they stained a pillow, a sheet and a pillow case with some kind of difficult to remove food--the pillow case is a write off, the sheet, fingers crossed, will come out clean with the extra heavy duty stain remover I'm using. The pillow is usually covered anyway
5) the place stunk to high heaven when I went in. No idea what they were cooking, but good grief. I have to go out and get some scented candles because even with the windows wide open and the ventiliation system on, I doubt it will be back to normal for the new guests who are arriving in a couple of hours
6) they brought at least one more person than they originally reported (although they didn't hide this from me, so I don't think it was done maliciously--they probably just said to themselves, there's an extra bed so why not). That said, that meant me doing laundry for a pull-out that I had earmarked as clean for today's guests.
Any thoughts? I'm going to wait 48 hours to review them because by then my annoyance level will be in control 🙂
