Karuna House

Good amount of bathrooms and very close to shops

Beds were uncomfortable

The location was excellent. The area was quiet, shops and takeaways within a 5 min walk. Plenty of parking, we fit 3 cars on the drive. The beds were comfy and the property was clean. The host was quick to reply on messages and very helpful.

The garden was unusable. Overgrown and full of weeds. A broken chair in the garden and there were only 2 for a house that sleeps 5. The bins were full and looked like they hadn't been moved in a long time with cobwebs between them and moss round the bottom. We couldn't empty our kitchen bin which left the kitchen smelling. The sofa in the living room was not suitable for a house for 5, we couldn't all sit down at once but luckily there was a dining table with chairs we could use, one of which was broken. The property needs painting, marks all over the walls but other than that, everything else was in good condition. When we arrived there was no hot water. Luckily it was the same system as I have in my house so I could figure it out. If the front and back garden were taken care of, I think it would encourage people to respect the property more.

Location and Clean.

Kitchen ware i.e. toaster didn't work and pans are past their best so need upgrading & a couple of oven dishes would be nice. Strange to have a lock on what must be a large cupboard in the main bedroom. Only useable 1 seat in garden?

Clean, nicely furnished, warm and comfortable

Maybe a little expensive for location Garden overgrown and lacks attention

Nice quiet location just a few mins walk from local shop and a couple of takeaways. House 🏠 very clean. There was an issue with a faulty smoke alarm that kept beeping, we called the contact number, and they sent someone to fix it. Would recommend this property and would certainly stay again.

Nothing really big to say the sofa was not very comfy but it didn't spoil our stay & no tin can opener in the kitchen.

We were a family party attending a wedding in Norwich and the location was excellent for us and very quiet. We appreciated being able to park directly outside the new build property. Keys are easily accessed from a key safe which is located next to the front door. We had the entire house to ourselves with a private fenced area which has a small patio and grass.

The beds are very narrow and as a previous reviewer said, in the main bedroom two beds are pushed together to make the size of a King Size bed i.e. 5 foot wide. It is quite disingenuous to call this an “extra large double bed”. The beds are shorter in length than a king size, which was uncomfortable for our taller guests. Also, there were no mattress protectors on the bed and every spring and ridge could be felt through the sheet. The bedrooms are described as having a wardrobe or closet and the two smaller ones do. However, in the main bedroom there is what looks like a double wardrobe, but it was bolted and padlocked shut with a combination lock! We messaged the owner to ask for the combination, but received no reply. We had to make do with hanging our clothes from four coat hooks on the wall. There were no drawers so it was impossible to unpack properly and we had to live out of our suitcase on the floor, which is not great when you have clothes for a wedding. The kitchen is bright but there is not nearly enough crockery for four, let alone five people. There were no large serving dishes, nor was there a coffee maker despite the description stating that there is one. We discovered that the dishwasher was smelling, stained with food and there was a pool of dirty water at the base of it. We tried to run a wash through it but without success as we think the drain was blocked. There were also no cleaning cloths in the kitchen so it was tricky to wipe down surfaces and remove marks and crumbs which were there when we arrived. The wash basin drain upstairs and the shower drain of the en suite bathroom was blocked as well.
