This agency appears great when you are letting but the moment the contract is signed you hear nothing from them. When we contacted them to inform that we are leaving they woke up just to bring people in and the moment they got new ones no one contacted us to advise how we will proceed when leaving the property. We had to chase them and chase them and finally we paid for cleaning with 48 h guarantee and they didnt even bother to come in this time. People working there are extremely rude and even offended me. Would never never use them in any case.avoid them if possible!
