Bernard from France
October 2018
The location is good, the accommodation is correct, we had a good stay, but…. The +: Bike rides from Bredene, access to the beach and the tram, access to shops on foot, layout of the rooms in the accommodation, its equipment, the garden. The calm of subdivision. Very warm welcome from the Interhome agency for handing over the keys. The negatives: Before going there, we had asked for the dimensions of the double bed to avoid paying the prohibitive cost of renting sheets. Twice we were told: 140cm bed, but in fact it is a 160cm bed. Arrived on site, our sheets were too small. The agency helped us out without financial compensation (thank you). The mandatory cost of 25€ per person per stay for cleaning at the end of the stay is both expensive and above all unjustified. Not finding the accommodation clean enough on our arrival, we spent an hour sweeping the interior, polishing the corners and washing the garden furniture, without complaining to the agency. We therefore returned a cleaner accommodation than the one found on our arrival and left 50€ for a service not rendered. In addition, the agency has a form filled out at the end of the stay to ensure that the accommodation is left in good order, so cleaning should not be done often, and almost never under the furniture. Shame. The owner should be stricter with his subcontractor on this point. The accommodation, although aging, is well equipped and comfortable. We would have appreciated a toaster for breakfast and an iron especially as there is an ironing board. These remarks do not affect the notation. We will return knowing what to expect. The 50€ cleaning must be integrated as an additional cost to the rental without expecting a serious counterpart on the cleanliness side.
