**A Quick Note About the Downstairs Carpet**



We want to be transparent before your stay: the downstairs carpet does have noticeable staining from previous use. The carpet is cleaned regularly; however, some discoloration remains and cannot be removed through standard cleaning.



We are aware of it, and replacement is planned as part of an upcoming renovation. In the meantime, please know that the staining is cosmetic and **not a reflection of the cleanliness of the home**.



We appreciate your understanding!
