Reviewer Comments:
Things got off to a poor start. We were told several times that we could not have access until 2pm, so we arrived at 2.05 to find that the cleaner had only just started. Apparently the owner's family did not leave on time. I find this absolutely insulting to paying guests such as ourselves. What incredible entitlement! The cleaner did a great job by the way but did not leave until around 5pm. TV is minimal on Straddie so we brought a bag of DVDs with us. The DVD player was broken. So much for that idea. During the second week the cooktop and oven stopped working. Straddie Sales got us an electrician the next day. He got the cooktop going but not the oven. We found a useful looking electric frying pan in the cupboard, but it was broken. Some lights in the kitchen were not working and the light in the toilet was decidedly wonky. The small window blind in the main bedroom is broken. All this shows that the owners are happy to take a substantial rent for Finlia, but are not prepared to maintain the property to the expected standard.Not our best stay on Straddie.
