Thank you for staying with us and for your personal opinion on our property. I am confident that I have been extremely honest in accurately portraying the property in the website "as is" providing plenty of photos and detailed extended descriptions of the inside/outside of the house and area. We are confident that the price is extremely fair according to many other prior guests, but of course I understand everyone has different budgets and expectations. Sorry to see you were somehow disappointed and maybe it was a matter of language barrier as the description is originally in English and google translation is not too accurate, to say the least. Photos though are plenty and pretty explanatory!
Garden works do take place in the area. Marbesa is very lush and all properties have beautiful gardens. You are right to say that garden work is not coordinated, as I know it is the case in Germany. Unfortunately, I cannot control when the neighbors cut their grass. It is very important for us to always make an effort to please our guests and ask from day one if there is something we can do to make their stay more enjoyable. I believe we did our very best by welcoming you well passed 3am, which is totally outside of normal check in hours, but we nonetheless made every effort to accommodate to your schedule. It has been our trademark to be flexible and available at all times and we love doing that. The room and inside areas are well kept and as depicted in the photos our property is a typical rustic Spanish style house. It is not a modern new house, however, the kitchen is indeed a new designer's kitchen. For next year's guests I am pleased to announce that this December the whole house will have new wooden windows and doors, true to the original architectural design of the house, which btw was depicted in the interior magazine "Elle Spain" a few years ago.
Marbesa had beautiful days indeed but it is actually booming at present time with many new famous modern architects' multimillion Euro properties making it a very desirable neighborhood. I agree a couple of roads do need some work done, which due to the latest construction boom they have had their share of damage. According to the latest association Minutes, they will be repaired very soon with residents' already approved budget.
Thank you for your opinion as all reviews are useful and help other potential guests to be very careful and look at all the information in the website in order choose according to what is described and avoid wrong expectations. Given all the above, I have to express my disappointment with your evaluation which I find unfair.
