    “From day 1, we noted oven was dirty, not been cleaned, BT hub channels were not available so had no TV for a week.”

    This was difficult with young children in the evenings. I reported the issues at day 1 and someone was going to come round. No one did. Eventually on evening of last day, I received a call to see if all issues were resolved, I said no. Enquired about having no TV channels, I was told the small JVC report (which controls the cd unit) would power the BT hub for channels and the white remote was to switch on the TV. This was clearly incorrect advice. I even quoted the guidance given in the handbook ...

    This was difficult with young children in the evenings. I reported the issues at day 1 and someone was going to come round. No one did. Eventually on evening of last day, I received a call to see if all issues were resolved, I said no. Enquired about having no TV channels, I was told the small JVC report (which controls the cd unit) would power the BT hub for channels and the white remote was to switch on the TV. This was clearly incorrect advice. I even quoted the guidance given in the handbook left in the property re the BT remote needed. I had to purchase an amazon firestick to watch streaming channels for the kids. I reported this all but had no response. Very disappointed with the service and cleaning of the oven. Also would appear the dishwasher placed in the kitchen during our stay was temporary as it was too small for a family of 4 and we could not fit standard plates. Only could wash some glasses and cutlery. Kitchen was not equipped like other SA accommodation in Cornwall. The Internet was great and beds were comfortable.

    Thanks for your feedback. We're sorry for the confusion around the TV setup and we are investigating this further. On Saturday, we were informed the BT remote couldn’t be found, so the housekeeper visited the property and confirmed that two remotes were present and these should operate the TV. On Wednesday, it was reported the issue was still unresolved, and we asked for a photo to confirm which remotes were available. This photo was received on Friday, and it was then confirmed that a third remote was required to operate the BT Box linked to the TV. The original remote was later found in the back of the sofa during changeover. We're also reviewing kitchen amenities and cleaning standards to improve future stays. Kind regards, Carbis Bay Holidays Team Property Owner
