But there was lots of spiders on the ceilings. And webs. Needed a good Hoover round the corners. Also very hard double bed. Outside was very scruffy and the patio door dirty and the slab and surround coated with bird poo. Awful mess needed a jet wash.looked really bad. Also needs a step to help get in the door as very high up.
