Magnolia Guest House Salerno

Everything was perfect, thank you.

We were met at the apartment by the owner’s mother. Communication was difficult as doesn’t speak any English and isn’t familiar with Google translate. The positive: large apartment, 2 bedrooms, 1 full bath and 1 powder room. All appliances are modern, good coffee machine, large balcony. Located on the first floor of a building with elevator. The bedding was clean. The negative: it was very dirty, if we hadn’t paid for 8 nights, we would have left. My husband spent 4 hours scrubbing and cleaning the apartment so that it could be used. I wish we could add pictures to this review as we have lots. The owner was unresponsive and said that she wasn’t responsible for the state of the apartment. At checkout, her mother came to inspect the apartment for damage and she showed us the spray bottle that is used to disinfect the air after a guest leaves. That’s all fine but someone still has to scrub the shower stall and sweep the floors. The apartment needs some maintenance, there was only one working lightbulb in the dining room light fixture and no light at all in the powder room, until we bought and installed one. The beds are uncomfortable and there are no mattress pads on the mattresses. But on the plus side, the next few guests should enjoy a cleaner apartment. This apartment has so much potential, the owner just needs to get a better cleaner and perform some rudimentary maintenance. I wish them the best.
