G bathroom kitchen bedding was clean. The flat definitely needs a deep clean (skirting boards, radiators and behind especially twin room. Cushion covers need changing badly stained. Carpet in the bathroom)

The only things I would say that were slightly bad is that it needs a bit of TLC. We found a screwdriver and fixed the door out to the terrace as the screws had come loose. The main bedroom door handle also feels like it will come off soon, quite loose. Otherwise a lovely apartment with a great view
