Hampton Homestay

Clean room and amenities, Chris is very helpful

Shared bathroom (my fault, I did put in the filters that I wanted a private bathroom. But Bookings.com miss led me).

The parking outside was okay, and the house itself is modern.

The host was the most condescending person l’ve ever known at being a host, his manner made you feel uneasy, he didn’t raise a smile or engage in any small talk. His one thing was these are the rules which must be obeyed, he spoke at you and not to you, it was a naughty schoolboy and headmaster relationship. The rules were no shoes in the house, only water in the bedroom, and very little in the way of what foods could be cooked in the property, I’d just driven a few hundred kms to get there and needed a cuppa but it wasn’t allowed, if ld made the drink downstairs ld have had to put up with the smell of his two dogs running around, l saw no mention of pets in the ad. The bedroom carpet hadn’t been cleaned for ages, it was covered in large bits which could and should have been collected by any vacuum, he pointed out a big mark on the duvet but said it’s a shame to throw it away so it stays where it is. It also has no locks on the bedroom doors which is a definite no no with me, because of the way he made you feel l wedged the door shut that night and next morning l got up earlier than l wanted and left before ld have to see him again. My mistake was not reading any reviews before hand, my lesson has been learnt.

The host was amazing he was very respectful and welcoming. He also accommodated the parking needs as they're is not too many options available in the street. I couldn't speak highly enough about Chris. He didn't just say bed 1 he gave us a full tour of the home and went over rules with us. The bed was very comfortable and the room was clean. The bathroom was very accessible and clean. I would 100% stay here again if im heading that way again.

The parking isn't great in the street, but this is definitely not Chris's fault, but he was able to solve this and accommodate parking for us. Thank you for a lovely stay, Chris, and we hope to see you again one day.

Casa stupenda peccato che

I wouldn’t even know where to start. Owner of the house with more rules than in the army, who reveals you only after the reservation (non-refundable) why not present in the description, says that it is not possible to cook red meat then the guests fridge is full of RED meat that feeds the dogs (maybe not only them). Obviously get ready to share YOUR REFRIGERATOR WITH THE DOGS, because their food will be two compartments from yours. The owner constantly checks what you do in the house, opens the door to the room to see what you do inside. Continuous warnings about closing the doors as if they were made of crystal. The kitchen “closes” at 9 pm, so if you don’t eat before that time you risk starving, the same goes for the shower, if you don’t do it by 9 you have to go to sleep dirty. In addition, comment aggressively on what you cook, how you eat and what lifestyle you want to adopt. Very dirty kitchen then he says you can park inside the structure in the end you find out you have to park on the street otherwise you risk a fine of 110 dollars. He says that the washing machine doesn’t work but he does it with the laundry just done in his hand. NOT RECOMMENDED! Non saprei neanche da dove iniziare. Proprietario della casa con più regole che in esercito, che ti rivela solo dopo la prenotazione (non rimborsabile) perché non presenti in descrizione, dice che non è possibile cucinare carne rossa poi il frigorifero degli ospiti pieno di carne ROSSA che fa mangiare ai cani (forse non solo a loro). Ovviamente tieniti pronto a condividere IL TUO FRIGORIFERO CON I CANI, perché il loro cibo sarà a due scomparti dal tuo. Il proprietario controlla costantemente cosa fai in casa, apre la porta della stanza per vedere cosa fai all’interno. Continui avvisi sul chiudere le porte come fossero di cristallo. La cucina “chiude” alle 9 pm, quindi se non mangi prima di quel ora rischi di morire di fame, stesso discorso per la doccia, se non la fai entro 9 devi andare a dormire sporco.

All necessary facilities and amenities were provided. Bedroom was clean and spacious. Bed was comfortable.

Phone number was a pizza shop ,entry code was incorrect, did not gain entry till 4.30 instead of the 2pm check in , terrible customer service overall !!
