I am pleased that my commitment to offer guests a good welcome and assistance during their stay is recognized. The old farmhouse, as the summary of my announcement says, "consists of 2 independent and ATTIGUED portions" does not speak of a single and isolated house so it is normal to hear the neighbors. I also believe that the guest, having the need to leave his dog totally free, should have checked by writing to me before booking. In the garden there are 5 buckets for separate collection and in the notebook of the house there are detailed informations on how to properly compost. Also at check-in I always recommend the guest to ask me for information if something is not clear ,so it was a bad surprise to find everything mixed in the bucket (head and bones of pork and pasta combined with plastic and paper for example). If the problem was having an extra bucket in the house, it was enough to ask for it since I live next door. Only at the time of check they told me that the dishwasher did not wash well and I replied that they should immediately report any malfunctions because I could easily solve everything on the first day of vacation, as well as I would have explained how to do a good coffee with the Italian coffee maker. Bottom Line: Aside from the unpleasant feeling of having to put my hands inside their trash, the house was delivered clean and the guests were always nice and polite. I would have preferred a more constructive relationship that would have allowed them to immediately have the things they wanted in the house and I would have avoided this bad review as I put a lot of love into the work I do.
