The location was great at the eastern end of the Strand, so there was road noise but that was to be expected. The usual token level of cleaning was evident i.e. glasses pots and pans were smeared and dirty. The usual clutter in draws but it was ok

Location was perfect. It is in a beautiful spot pity about the cleanliness of the apartment.Pantry was dirty / sticky with an oily residue and smelt of curry. Could not and would not use the inside of the pantry.2. Kitchen cabinet doors and handles were sticky and need a good thorough wipe over.3. The 2 top drawers in the kitchen had something spilt on them and not cleaned.4. Dryer had items of clothing in them which were not ours. I left them on the kitchen bench. The filter had not been cleaned of fluff.5. The toaster was full of crumbs which I cleaned out.6. The inside of the kitchen bin had not been cleaned and the outside had spillage on it.7. The shower had orange mould on the bottom of the wall tiles where it met the floor tiles. This could be cleaned with a brush. 8. The bathroom tiles were dirty. The soles of our feet were dirty after walking on these.9. A packet of tissues were under the single bed which were not ours. So obviously this had not been cleaned.10. The mop cupboard smelt of wet mop when we opened it.11. Lounge dirty – needs a steam clean.12. No hairdryer or coffee pod machine.
