Although everything has been cleaned with the appropriate products, if you still feel uncomfortable, please consider covering them with your own linens. We provide a tablecloth. IMPORTANT: Please do not use any cleaning products on the furniture, including the antique dining table which has an aged patina. Nothing but mild soap and water (NO BLEACH) and a gentle cloth should be used on it. Removing your shoes when entering the property and leaving them at the entrance (if possible, outside).
