Alpes-de-Haute-Provence, FRA Accommodation

It was clean but a bit basic in the room No kettle

VRBO need to keep a check on these properties, because this one now, no longer looks as good in real life as what the photos show. On the plus side,this house has excellent WIFI,a great big freezer & large seperate fridge, great tv with Netfix, in English too, good selection of utensils in the kitchen & a lovely, but v v cold swimming pool, it leaks & needs topping up.We r campers, we are use to roughing it, but it was v disappointing when we first arrived. It seems since taking the photos he has just let everything rot. Including mattresses around pool.The house is ok,but the wooden floorboards upstairs make a LOT of creaking noise, so if you need to use the bathroom during the night you are likely to wake everyone up while you get there. The tiles in the kitchen have not been grouted &a few around the sink kept falling off. Shower upstairs leaks into the downstairs bathroom, doesnt have a washer, so as much water shoots the opposite direction to what comes out the head & doesnt attach to the wall, so I had to sling it over my shoulder while I washed. I weeded around the pool and cleaned the outside tables. The pool slabs are crumbling & breaking up & he had given up laying the path, so shoved a few bricks under the edge to keep it from collapsing, then dumped the rest in a big pile with old pile of tarps.Bbq v wobbly and filthy. He lives in the same building with locked doors & walks through the outside rented area several times a day.I like privacy when on holiday. Shame.

An amazing stay. We opted for an apartment- which was incredible. The hotel is so clean, newly renovated and the staff were extremely helpful. The pool is open until 11pm which was very much appreciated after the hot days in Provence.
