Funky Finca
The garden was a mess. Long grass, untrimmed bushes, wood pile with overturned wheelbarrow, separate burning pile, broken pots, wild bushes. Pingpong table wasn't set up. BBQ was small and dirty so we didn't use it. The swimming pool was dirty. We cleaned some of the vents. Gardener said it was one day's waste but the amount of needles said differently. Pool water was too cold to swim in.
The inside was a mess. The construction of the finca is poor. Uneven boards, crazy stairway with no banister. Everyone stubbed their toes and my wife broke her toe tripping on an uneven surface. It was dirty, especially the tiny kitchen sinks. Shelving in kitchen was falling apart in some cupboards. Hole in the kitchen wall was disguised by an apron. Downstairs closets were full of junk including smelly mops. Washer & Dryer located in a 'room' attached to finca. Again, fulll of stuff including mops, hoes, etc. Difficult to get the washing machine. No instructions provided for any of the appliances. Found cockroach in master bath. Crib that was left in master bedroom was wooden and noncollapsible and large. Very difficult to get it into a different room and out of the way because of small doorways. Master shower was blocked. We used plunger and bleach to clear it. I asked the owner (who is the manager) to provide a clean shower curtain and he did. The one we had was too long for the shower and dirt/filth/discoloration 1/3 way up curtain. Master bath closet was full of owner's things. No doors on closets, just curtains. Lighting was poor in kitchen so had to bring in lamps from the living room. If it wasn't for the view of the mountains and the location to hiking trails, etc. we would have been extremely disappointed. This finca needs a lot of work and it's overpriced from our perspective. No value for money. We spent way too much time figuring out where things were, how they worked, etc. Cannot recommend.
