I did my usual and did not research on here before going at Xmas. Have to say the last two houses we hired from people on this site were great. However this time my wife made the booking as she wanted to make sure that the house would be big enough to take all our UK Family, and most of my American family. Anyway to cut a very long story short we stayed at STALAG Weston Hills! Quite a nice house, but it was the stupid notes everywhere, don't do this, don't do that, if you do we charge you, type of thing. The worst thing of all was that we asked for a heated pool, it was just off cold, we complained and got told it was on ! Next plastic sheets under every bed, found it hard to sleep with all the rustling. House was freezing cold, and we could not up the temp gauge, as another note pointed out Electricity in Florida is expensive! Good grief they ought to try it here in the UK where we get 8 Months of cold weather (Seems like more just lately, perhaps I'm getting old)
But I think the one that takes the cake was aimed squarely at us Brits, describing how to use the toilet, I kid you not....Ok I know they block easy, we travel to the Florida at least twice a year, my family are also American, and Floridians as well. Told the owners that as well.
So for you American owners, Brits are resonably intelligent, tend to travel quite a bit (That's how you lot got there!) and do know how to use a toilet rather than the bed [:O]
Sorry to blast off, but this ruined our holiday, and has put me of renting from Americans again.
Now positive feedback. We stayed at a fantastic comfortable, warm pooled, warm house last March, everything you could possible want. Dave & Linda (Loma Linda), we'll be back.
