Over the years we have successfully rented at least 5 other properties. Unfortunately Whitney was a big disappointment due to things easily remedied by improving their cleaning and maintenance.
Cleaning issues were primarily related to the kitchen and are as follows:
Upon arrival the coffee maker had used grounds left in the filter.
The garbage can to the right of the sink was completely full of trash.
The dishwasher was full of dirty dishes.
The oven had spilled food on the bottom resulting in smoke as it heated up to cook something.
The refrigerator had crumbs etc inside. It obviously wasn’t cleaned.
The cloth napkins were dirty. We used paper towels instead. A better option would be to supply paper napkins.
The floor in the enclosed porch, was covered with dirt, leaves and twigs.
Maintenance issues include the following:
The Fujitsu remote for the first floor guest bedroom did not work. Upon investigation a leaking battery was discovered. The only option was to take a replacement battery out of one of the living room remotes.
The second floor shower was useless due to very low water press and and ineffective water temperature control
One of the door locks in the second floor bathroom kept falling out. It’s missing a screw or what’s there is the wrong size.
Many of the window shades on the second floor are broken.
The fireplace flue was open. We closed it. Also, the fireplace itself was overflowing with ashes.
As someone is aware because there is a note, the main glass door between the laundry and living room couldn’t be used. Due to its primary location fixing it should be a priority.
A kitchen knife was jutting out of the window lock in the kitchen to keep it shut with a note stating not to remove the knife. This looks like a simple repair.
We hope these issues are addressed immediately so future tenants will have a better stay than we did. The house itself has lots of character and is located on a beautiful country road.
