I will pay more for an alternative option next year. Whilst it's a beautiful residence with clean, modern rooms, I didn't like the service. The owners seem like nice people. The pool area is beautiful but wasn't maintained the one day I used it - I scooped 100+ insects out myself with the net which I had no problem doing. Maybe that's expected of the guests, I don't know. If so, fair enough. It's a nice area.
Upon arrival we were charged 30€ extra for a one-time room cleaning (last day only) and 20€ for the bed sheets, of which I had no complaints as the room was cheaper - although this bumps the price up to the average in the area. Upon leaving I was told I need to put the dishes away which I had washed, and told to wipe down the kitchen entirely, even though we'd paid the cleaner's fee and the fact we'd already respectfully tidied it. She told me that as we got a special rate online, the cleaner won't clean the whole room, making us feel like a 'lower category' client for gettng a good deal. Also, when I'm on holiday and making french toast, I don't need nor appreciate the owner popping his head in the door to see what I'm cooking before commenting that the room will now smell bad and giving off a bad vibe. Why provide a kitchen if you can't cook? Cooking smells. What if I was naked? The internet was awful when I tried to use it, and was off for a good 12 hours at one point, and the washing machine didn't work, although they do have a separate laundry room which was good.
