            <span>While I regret that your experience of my house did not live up to your expectations, there are a number of miss-representations in your comments that cannot go unchallenged.
1. to suggest that our modern kitchen equipped with a 4 burner gas cook-top, electric fan-forced oven, electric toaster, juicer, electric slow-cooker, food processor, Barmix, and a large number of quality pots, pan, cooking utensils, a cupboard full of herbs and spices, olive oils, pasta, canned goods, etc, is &quot;not use-able except to make coffee&quot; is plainly untrue.  We entertain a lot, and frequently produce 4-5 course dinners for up to 14 from this kitchen.
2. &quot;had to pay for all the food for breakfast&quot;
We offer and supply a breakfast of:  individual plates of mixed fresh fruit (papaya, watermelon, oranges, mango, banana, etc.), a loaf of freshly baked bread, top quality toasted muselli, fresh yogurt, a litre of fresh milk (imported from Australia), butter (imported from N.Z.), fresh eggs, ground coffee and Nescafe, a range of local and imported teas, EVERY SINGLE DAY. The only things that guests need to pay for, are specialty items, vegan or medical dietary needs that may fall outside the above list.  The majority of past reviews have specifically praised the breakfasts that we have provided over the past several years.
3. &quot;we had to pay...$50 each to 3 staff members...&quot;
All three staff members are paid above the award wage monthly, by me, and have been with me for up to 7 years.  In the &#039;House Guide&#039; which I provide for all guests at check-in, explaining hours of work for staff, use of audio visual equipment, wifi password, water and electricity, and providing recommendations to restaurants, tours, etc. there is a heading &quot;Tips:  yes please!&quot;  There, I recommend not tipping on a day-to-day basis, but tips of up to Rp500,000 for exemplary service for stays over five days, and ask that the Nightwatchman not be forgotten.
Tipping is obviously completely discretionary in my house, as it is everywhere in Bali, and Australia from whence you come.

It is willfully misleading to claim either that breakfast was not offered each day, and also that you were in some way forced to pay each staff member $50. 
The rest of your comments regarding &quot;dust&quot; and &quot;kitchen cleaning&quot; are well noted, and extra supervision of staff in those areas will be willingly exercised.  I rather think that in the context of your other comments however, that these issues may not honestly be so serious.</span>
