    Response from the owner
    I am so sorry that the overall cleanliness of the property was not up to your standards. As a person who travels frequently with my family, I agree that cleanliness is at the top of my list of priorities for vacation rental properties. We will address this immediately with our housekeeping staff to ensure that proper steps are taken to ensure cleanliness for all guests. I have also taken note of the items that were missing and intend to ensure inventory is restocked as well. Thank you for your review.
