The room was small but perfect. It definitely needs a mattress topper or new mattress. Very uncomfortable. But other than that the room was close to everything. Had a couple issues with the tv but it was taking care of immediately! Very nice staff!

Hello. My husband and I stayed at Harriet’s house on July 10th-July 11th. We had a great time on the island and our stay was fantastic. Upon looking at my bank statements I noticed a charge for $50. I contacted Linda, to gain some clarification as to what the charge was for. Linda and informed me that there was a “urine” stain on the sheets and that she had to throw them away. Upon receival of the photo of said mess, I was actually quite appalled at the fact that this was something Linda had indicated was so bad, she in fact had to throw the sheets away. Linda had informed me that this stain was so bad, that it wouldn’t come out. But also indicated that “she couldn’t put this in the washer with the rest of things” which to me sounds like washing the sheets wasn’t even attempted as she could not provide an after photo of the sheets. Hotels are supposed to wash all linens before and after every guest stay, so that shouldn’t have even been an issue. Even if there was bodily fluids on any type of linen product in that room, It is standard practice and aligned with industry guidelines for hotels to thoroughly wash and sanitize all linens—including sheets, pillowcases, and towels—both before a guest’s arrival and immediately after checkout. This ensures a clean, hygienic, and comfortable environment for every guest, and is a fundamental part of maintaining quality and safety in hospitality services. The fact that I was charged for something as basic as washing sheets is honestly in
