I hear you @Linda-And-Richard0
I now almost always leave it a good couple of days - it's amazing the things that will turn up - you'll find something broken, or something missing..
If it makes you feel any better I stuffed up more spectacularly than that on my second ever booking.
It was a group I wasn't at all worried about - elderly male lawn bowlers up for a tournament. I was certain they'd just play, drink beer, come home to sleep and do it all again. For some reason I couldnt' go up for a couple of days after checkout.
When I came to clean a few days later everything was as I thought it would be. They'd clearly just slept and bathed there . They'd left me a bottle of wine as a thank you which i was enormously impressed by. The beds were pretty messy - sheets everywhere, but that's fine. And they'd been quite considerate and put all the towels in the laundry tub, including a heap of beach towels, which surprised me as I didn't think they'd have time to go to the beach. I was glad I hadn't left it any longer because the tub tap had a slow drip and i knew the towels would be really wet.
With the bottle of wine in my line of vision I left a glowing review
Then I decided to tackle the washing. It wasnt' till I got up close and personal to the towels and went to lift them out of the tubs that I realised that they were sopping wet with URINE.
I stood there gagging and dry retching for some time - the smell was overwhelming. then all I could think was "oh my GOD the beds...." The beds were fine, but there was a set of urine soaked PJS lying on the floor under the bed...
I can't imagine how that much urine got on towels and PJ's and none at all on the sheets and linens and I really don't want to know....
