6/10 Good
4 Oct 2024
On the overall, the property was very inhospitable. As per instructions, we informed the property owner that we would be checking in @ approx. 10.30 pm as our train was scheduled to arrive @ 10.05 pm. We were then asked to pay Euro 50 for late check-in, as against the amount of Euro 20 stated on the website. We were further informed that they would book the taxi for us at a cost of Euro 110 from the station to the house, whilst the actual cost for a small taxi was approx. Euro 20 per trip. We were left with no other choice but to accept these conditions which left a very bad taste in our mouth.
Although, tired from our journey, we had to wait for approx.15 mins at the train station for their vehicle to arrive & when it did we had to carry all our luggage a few meters away from the entrance to where their vehicle was parked. Whilst waiting, we had observed that there were plenty of taxis available at the taxi stand near the entrance & if we had taken a public taxi, we would have reached the property within the check-in time of 10.30 pm thereby avoiding all the additional late check-in fees & taxi fare.
We had booked for 9 pax for 4 nights & were provided with just 6 tissue rolls for toilet use for 4 nights. When we requested the owner for more, she informed us that this was part of the welcome kit. If we required more, we had to purchase. Frying pan was not provided, so we were forced to order breakfast from out. The garbage was not once cleared during our stay.
