Last minute holidays to Fuerteventura

Samantha Ross

We booked as a last minute sunny holiday and the photos of the resort is what sold it to us. In the past we have been disappointed by the actual hotel based on the photos they advertise with but we were met with exactly the same beautifully refurbished rooms and clean pools. However the shower was not very warm in the room. The all-inclusive food in buffet style was much better than we have experienced before and there was always a large selection of freshly prepared food. The only downside was that there were no pint glasses for the tap beer so had to use wine glasses. The activities around the pool were great as well and got everyone involved and were well organised. The staff were so helpful and polite as well and you can hire beach towels for €10 each which I would recommend as it saves room in the suitcase and also cash on the last day paid for our taxi back to the airport. I would recommend not using the shuttle transfer from airport as this resort it only a 10/15 min drive away and cost under €20 each way. We also booked the Oasis Park Safari through the rep in the hotel and the coach did a return journey outside the hotel for €5. I would recommend the camel ride as well which you pay for separately. We wished that we had booked for longer!!

Hotel is ok but would not return. It is laid out across a large area. Pool areas extremely slippy and rubbish left everywhere. Location is up a hill which is fine for people who are able to walk etc with ease. Shop/Amenities all close by along with a few pubs/places to eat.

I am in love with this island. As a single mum traveling with three kids (16, 8 and 5), for the first time abroad, I was slightly apprehensive given some reviews. In reality the holiday was wonderful. The restaurant staff are amazing. One waiter in particular was very lovely and deserves recognition by the hotel manager (particularly for putting up with me and the kids practicing our Spanish). Unfortunately, I never got his name to be able to mention him directly and he left for a 33 day vacation half way through our stay 😞. However, it is fair to say it was not the same after he left. The food is excellent and even as vegetarians, me and the kids were not stuck for choice. The location is glorious and it is convenient for accessing the beach. I personally found the accommodation to be perfectly located and peaceful too. My daughter has sensory needs and can easily be overwhelmed by noise and that was not the case here. I think she only had one meltdown the entire holiday. The choice of pools is great but the poolside is slippery and my eldest hit her head, so be careful. Pools are clean and toilets, bar snacks and drinks are easily accessible. The accommodation was comfortable and fresh, it was cleaned twice during the stay to a very high standard. The cleaners even arranged the kids toys beautifully on their beds which made their day. There was a smell of drains in the bathroom but this was nothing major. Also, the hotel accommodation is not spread out as far as some reviews make out. I found it quick and convenient to access pools/bars/restaurant. I also felt 100% safe on my own with three children, both in the accommodation and walking around site. I would love to return here again soon as I know we would be guaranteed a great holiday. I did thank staff at reception in person before leaving too. The only drawback to this holiday was the minority of other rude British holidaymakers who showed little respect to staff who work hard.

Not what we expected. No welcome drink. Room waited nearly 4 hours and only got a room when hubby got angry. Lots of un kept pavements and roads bar in complex b best part staff amazing not a lot of food choice in main restaurant. A long walk to area c for entertainment and not good if you have walking difficulties. Bars and restaurants nearby very good. Love this resort but won't be back in a hurry not to this hotel

Kieran Wain

Me and my partner on holiday were seriously worried after looking at the reviews before went about the break ins and uncleanliness. On that we didn’t hear on any break ins while we was there our room was clean but some rooms look new and some looked run down. We didn’t hear multiple people complaining about there room and how there were cockroaches in there room we didn’t have one. The location was really close to town 5-10 minutes good location. All staff friendly the jet2 rep Carl was amazing with the things he offers. The restaurant looked like it was newly done owt and the food was good not many options but enough to choose from and that’s coming from a picky eater. But I will say be careful when picking up plates because nearly every time I got a plate I had to put it down to get a clean one. One thing that didn’t sit well with us is there are roads in between the rooms so anyone can just walk around your hotel rooms and you would never know. And also at c there was a disgusting smell near the drinks section

Rob

Everything is great about this place. We’ve not had any poor food, always plenty to choose from. The pools are great for children, always something for them to do. The restaurants are clean, staff always on hand to clear plates and tables. Bars great service. Nightlife is good for families with younger children. We’re one week into two weeks and no complaints at all.

Rachel Clarke

We have been back a week now! We had a lovely stay here the villa was lovely very spacious with everything you needed! The hotel itself was clean and the staff were very friendly and very helpful the food was good plenty of variety for everyone! If you are looking for a holiday for the little kids this place is perfect ! we were 2 adults and 1 grown up daughter so we weren't really catered for regarding the night entertainment as it is Very much for the kids (this is not a negative) but because you are out of the way from anywhere you can't really go for a walk or anything! We did take the free bus to the town for the day which was a lovely day out for shopping and the town was beautiful! My only negative is the foot paths around the villa's are awful and could really do with some maintenance I spent my time walking on the road! And also you have to pay a €200 security bond when you arrive (which wasn't a problem) but I am still waiting for my refund after a week of returning home so just be aware it's not a quick process! But all in all we had a lovely break here I don't know if I would return just simply because it really is for families with smaller children

Malcolm Cooke (Malcolm Cooke)

While arriving at night, it all looks lovely, but the morning light shows the true reality. The footpaths are all broken, so you end up walking on the road. The quality of food is very poor, and if you are relying on the on-site supermarket, be prepared to pay well over the top prices. We ended up going into town( which the resort organises two free buses a day) to go shopping and saved a fortune. The other restaurant on site is called mavericks, and the food is just passable. Much better quality hotels and resorts closer to the town, and restaurants are available. Personally, I would avoid this one.

Bhavesh Patel

Come back last week with 2 kids who loved it. Don't miss out on the foam pool party once a week. We went self catering which I'm glad because the people we spoke to said the food was not good. Try and request a villa near the Reception as the resort is BIG and can be too much for a walk if you've got little ones. Pool is great and it's a safe place to stay. Good shuttle service to corralejo twice a say and is free, BUT its about a 15 min walk to the main area once you get off the bus. The staff are great and fixed any issues we had. Enjoy

David Locke

The transfer from the airport was longer than expected. The reception staff were polite and very helpful. All inclusive food was excellent with plenty of choices, restaurant staff were very efficient. Animation staff were great (Simon needs more training) aqua gym was fun. Overall this is a great place to relax and I would recommend this resort.

Josie Shelley

I stayed here for 11 nights and it was excellent! The room was clean and well maintained. The pool area was nice, quiet and tidy. The location is perfect: close to bars, restaurants and the sea. Will certainly be going back next year. Note: this hotel is disabled friendly.

Sue Palmer

I stay there for a week in September and absolutely loved it. The staff were all.so very helpful and friendly. The room was clean and had all I needed and more. I was in room 247 and had a view of the sea from my balcony. You couldn't ask for a more perfect location!!! Wouldn't hesitate to recommend it and will definitely be visiting again sometime. Thank you to all the staff xx

Wayne Buck

This hotel is perfect for couples, families and those travelling alone. Hotel staff are extremely helpful and polite. Rooms are very clean with good air con. We had a room overlooking the street, great atmosphere too. The main pool is heated and very nice. Sunbeds are always available. Hotel is ideally situated for shops, restaurants and cocktail bars. Flicks karaoke is a must see. Great atmosphere in there. We will definitely be back next year. Thank you for making our stay a very enjoyable one 🙏😊

Janette Atherall

Very disappointed this hotel needs a refurbishment, furnishings very tired, we were self catering, the hobs didn’t heat up , light in the kitchen didn’t work. The worst parts were the spiral staircase (external) outside our room that was accessed 24/7, the shower with water that didn’t drain away properly and bin moving every morning at 7:00am. We did speak to Reception and the only issue resolved was the changing of a bulb in the kitchen. Almost wished we hadn’t upgraded to a premium room.

Liam Peters

We’re here for 2 weeks, the staff are so friendly and very helpful nothing is too much trouble. The only issues I have is the Air Conditioning unit isn’t compatible, it’s very dated and just blows out cool air, the room is always hot and we need to sleep with the patio door open most nights. The bar downstairs has a cocktail of the day for €4- so much more cheaper than all the local bars in the area. The cleaning staff are great, they even come back later on in the day if you have overslept. I would definitely stay here again if they updated the air conditioning system. The hotel is in a great location.

Thomas Barke

Making this post during our holiday to mention the animation team, I will update for the hotel once finished. I must say we have been to a few hotels over the years and can honestly say that here the animation team has gone above and beyond. There are activities going on all the time (something for everyone from morning to evening)and they are always welcoming. They really do put their all into it and you can feel it. Special mention to Dan who I have spoken to a few times and have given a real 5 star service can't fault anything. The team is great with the kids and adults. Update: The hotel The hotel is great for us and we will definitely be coming again. The food is always great and something for everyone. The staff are always welcoming and very helpful. There is a diverse language group here and I never felt that I could not ask a question. The hotel is a short 15-20min walk to the town across the beach path from there you have all the town and harbour activities and there is a shopping centre next door also for all the bits you could need. They have a heated pool which was a big plus. This is a must try hotel.

Mario Giordano

The hotel was very easy to reach. The personnel have been great and always available. The room was awesome and clean. The breakfast was plentiful and amazing. The pools were pleasant and well taken care of. I very much recommend it.

Marie-Claire Dollman

We have just arrived home. I loved staying at the Elba Carlota. We always got a Sun bed. The kids pool was child friendly in regard to access. The food in the buffet area was vey enjoyable. I have to also say that the mini club and Francesca were amazing with my grandson who is Autistic. She managed to help keep him engaged and it offered a safe place for him to play opening up areas that would normally be stressful for him. Thank you for our lovely holiday 👍

Mike Finnerty

Hotel could be amazing but the bar service is shocking! The queues for the bar every evening is about a 15 minute wait. The lobby bar has 1 or sometimes 2 people serving in the evening at the busiest time. Also nearly impossible to get a drink at dinner. Staff are friendly just clearly not enough of them at the busiest times. It’s a shame as the location and hotel are both great

Nicola Smith

This is the second time we have visited Elba Carlota and we can't wait to return. It truly is the most magical and amazing place. We had a gorgeous room 547 with a pool and side sea view. Our whole visit was just superb, the food is amazing l, there's so much choice. There's absolutely no rush for sunbeds ever, there's always plenty and no need to ever rush down for them. The entertaining team work so hard and provide fantastic activities all day and night..our boy loves them and Pepe the ant. The kids club is just brilliant with a soft play. The reception staff are so helpful, cleaners do an amazing job, the bar staff and waiters just work so so hard. Nearby you have the local Spar shop with everything in, local restaurants, a market on Tuesdays and Saturdays. Chipmunks to feed on the beach. Elba Carlota, you are a magical place and we can't wait to return! N Smith

Jason K

Really like this place. Just returned from our second stay here, this time opting for a premium sea view room... and it didn't disappoint! It has to be one of the best locations in the resort and to have that uninterrupted view across the beach and bay really contributed to making our week a great one. Yes, if you look closely enough you will find some areas for improvement. However, look beyond that and what you do have here is a clean, comfortable hotel with great staff, good food and all in an enviable location. Ideal for a few days away in the sun...we will be back!

Susan Smith

This is a lovely hotel with a very unusual and interesting layout. The staff are friendly and helpful. The pools are very good but the pool bar is too small for the hotel and the other bar doesn't open until late. The rooms are all suites, we had a junior suite with superior sea view, we are right on the seafront here and the wow what a view.

James Williams

The staff were all excellent, particularly on the bar and restaurant. The rooms were big (Jnr suite), although the AC was not very effective. Huge balcony and we could see the sea. Food buffet was OK, lots to choose from, although we ate out a few times in search of higher quality meals. All inclusive alcohol was weak/not so nice (beer and sangria were fine - but not the cocktails). You have to pay for branded drinks. The pools I think are salt water so wash your swimwear after. Nice layout with lots of sunbeds. A perfect location for a 10 minute walk into where the shops bars and restaurants are. There are a few shops nearby selling snacks/drinks. Recommend hiring a car from here to see the north and south ends of the island (approx 1hr each way - we used CiCar). Overall really happy with the hotel and experience.

Seher T.

We booked the hotel for a week. I am writing this comment on the 3rd day of my stay. Unfortunately the hotel is an absolute disappointment. the food is terribly bad. I had nausea last night and then vomited. I don't know if I have food poisoning or if my stomach didn't want the disgusting food anymore. this is our first and last visit here. The hotel doesn't deserve four stars. I don't recommend it to anyone! The pool is very dirty, a deposit of 10 euros is required for towels, I can understand that. But as soon as you want to change the old towel with a new one you have to pay a fee of €1. So much for the all inclusive theme. In Turkey, Egypt, etc. I have never experienced anything so bad in any all-inclusive hotel.

Kulwant Suman

Great hotel would have given 5 stars, but a lot of issues that could improve. The entrance and majority of the ground floor are paved with broken pavement, which is a major hazard for tripping and very, very awful to go over as I'm a wheelchair user. Rooms are nice, but the ac is a hit and miss. Cleaners have to be reminded that you want room cleaned. Restaurant is another hit and miss. The food is more or less every other day. The location was fantastic as you came out of the hotel. The beach is front a two minute walk. Views are great. You can see the beach from one side to the other and see the sunset/raise in the ocean.

J.

The restaurant needs a deep clean. The coffee machines need to be descaled. There are NO kettles or complementary coffee/tea sachets in the rooms in this 4* hotel…the carpet in the hallway is filthy and needs to be changed. The lifts are ridiculously small considering there are mostly families staying. We had to wait up to 15 minutes for a free lift with a baby in a pushchair. At times I wanted to carry the pushchair down the stairs myself. Food is pretty decent. There are a few pools you can stay at which is nice. There are a few really nice spots to take pictures. All the staff is really nice. It’s really clear that this hotel operates based on quantity and not quality. My expectations were different based on how much I paid for this holiday. I wouldn’t stay here again.

Oskar Walder

Very disappointing experience. Unfortunately, other negative reviews here are mostly true. We were told that the hotel was renovated recently but after seeing the hotel it hard to believe. The hotel is very dirty and falling apart pretty much everywhere. After arrival we noticed some cockroaches in hall and we were fascinated to see that it took almost full week to clean them. To make it even worse there were a lot of people complaining about thefts in the hotel. Regarding personal we have mixed feelings some were nice and helpful others not so. All inclusive is definitely not worth it as all drinks are from cheap water diluted alcoholic liqueurs and food was not so good either. Good coffee is not included in all inclusive, for safe you need to pay extra, even tea was not at room because you need to pay for it extra. Only good think what I can say about the hotel is location. The hotel is close to very nice beach and small city center but that is pretty much all.

Robert Chadwick

Typical 4 star all inclusive. Room was spacious, clean, and cool. The food was always as good as it can be for typical all inclusive buffet style, always plenty of choice. Ignore those who moan about the food those people have champagne taste and lemonade budget! As for security, simply keep your balcony door closedand locked! It's typical of any resort that thieves hover anywhere you go. The air con doesn't work without balcony door being closed anyway! Staff are friendly and helpful. Will definitely be trying other SBH resorts in the future!

Lorraine Bray Reeves

Came with a party of 5, one a disabled partially sited OAP whom I care for and had specifically asked for 3 rooms close to each other as she needed extra guidance. When we arrived no arrangement had been met they had put her 21 year old grandson in the same room as an 86 year old woman and didn't see any problem doing that. In fact concierge attitude made me feel like I was being unreasonable as why weren't our rooms together rather than at the other side of the complex. . The satellite channels only cater for German and Spanish, 1 channel sky news in English. Rooms are very basic and they charge you ££4.50 euro a day for the safe, were most hotels in this area charge you much less. We are still here and will review at another time as to all other amenities.

Tasha Lincoln

The room size is great, and i liked having a separate living and bedroom. The pools were also great. Sunbeds were available at all times of the day around all 3 pools. The infinity pool was the most lively and busiest, but this is where the entertainment is during the day. The service from the reception desk was awful, and the layout of the hotel wasn't the best, on the first day, we had trouble finding our room following the instructions given. Food was awful, with the same food every night, and most of it was lukewarm. Pizza was the only good thing! Drinks regularly ran out from the drink machine at the pool and in the restaurant, and there wasn't a lot of choice to begin with. The surrounding area is pretty, but there doesn't seem to be a lot going on. I wouldn't go back to this hotel, but i know that's not everyones opinion.

matt slade

An older hotel, and perhaps a little tired in places, but the staff work hard and always aim to please. Great pool for kids and beach (stony) just outside the grounds, there is also a nicer beach about 5 minutes walk along the shoreline. We did all inclusive and as I haven't done so before, I don't have a benchmark. However, there was never any shortages of food, nor variety over the week we were there. Drinks were a bit of a limited, but more than adequate for me. My only gripe was not being able to get bottled water/tap water after 11pm, so you need to stock up on a few bottles when you get there.

Angela Jones

We had a sea view room which was really clean and nice but the walk to get to it was a few hundred metres. We went to breakfast and back and I had done 1700 steps hahah. The pool and gardens were clean and well looked after. The only 'complaint' really was the musty smell in reception and surrounding areas.

Igor Kiryushin

The dishes are dirty, the bed linen should be changed every three days, but it was changed after 7 days after three appeals to the administration.

L Köstler

The rooms and the hotel in general are outdated but besides that we had a great stay

beedee light

1, The reception was professional ,quick and friendly . We arrived late ,.... a special snack was put aside for the three of us....me ,my wife and five year old son . 2. The room was good ( a little dated ) but clean. The opposite hotel has a noisy generator that kept us awake.....The next day the hotel moved us to an " up graded sea view room " Much appreciated . 3. Food. Cannot fault it at all . Lots of choice VERY TASTY . Shame some guests did not respect the dress code . 4. Nice pool area and ten minute walk to a long sandy beach . 5 . The entertainment at night was good .The Animation team were there if you wanted them but did not bother you if you wanted a quiet restful stay. This hotel is a good four star hotel and would recommend it to anyone wishing to stay here .

Catherine Brennan

We had such a lovely relaxing holiday here, everything was spot on, the staff were amazing, especially Santiago, who cleaned our room to perfection every day. There are some building work going on opposite the hotel, but we didn't find it intrusive. It's spotlessly clean, friendly, and almost has that family run hotel feel about it. We loved it and hope to return next year.

Celia Stevenson

I stayed here for a week in September 2024. The room was kept spotlessly clean, the bed was extremely comfortable and noise from the adjacent building site was minimal with the balcony doors closed - in fact, I had no problem with it at all. The breakfasts were very good, lots of choice from full English to salads and cold meats, fresh fruit, yoghurts, croissants and fresh pancakes with chocolate sauce - yum!! Reception staff were friendly, efficient and helpful. highly recommended, I will stay here again.

Jen Hoodratroughdiamond

Absolutely would not recommend this hotel. Firstly in front of the hotel there’s a huge building site with a crane that you can see from the pool area. There’s constant beeping and drilling all day while you’re by the pool. If you book a room that isn’t a pool facing room, beware because your balcony might be overlooking this total mess. We travelled with our 10 week old baby and were surprised to find the rooms that are advertised as having en suites with baths have no plugs so not only is the bath pointless but we couldn’t use the sink to wash our son. When we mentioned it to the staff we given a random plug that didn’t fit and continued to struggle with the most basic tasks. The rooms are also advertised as having ‘mini fridges’ which was important for us for milk storage for our baby. Every morning after storing my formula and expressed milk in the fridge, we’d wake up to find it gone off as well as the food we’d bought from the supermarket. I also notified the hotel about this and I was told that the fridges are not actually fridges but ‘coolers’. Missing the most basic of requirements again. The room’s also don’t come with kettles which made preparing formula impossible. We had booked a ‘premium double room’ with Jet 2 and were surprised to find 2 single beds shoved together on tiled flooring. This meant that the beds moved around in the night and my husband and I woke up with a huge gap between us. We had to constantly push them back together again. The last night of the holiday our tap water came out brown. I went downstairs to notify reception and no one was there. The hotel receptionists had bad attitudes and constantly gave us stink eye. Jessica on reception was particularly awful and had zero customer service skills. One pro of the hotel was that it is clean and the cleaning staff were lovely. The buffet breakfast was nice but the buffet in the evening was cold. We liked going to Leonardo’s down the road for the best four cheese pizza you’ll ever have. Do not book this hotel!

cox nicholas

Hotel is within easy reach of the beaches. The hotel is very clean with an excellent restaurant serving buffet breakfast and evening meal with plenty of choice. Rooms good quality and very clean and seviced every day . Staff are always very friendly and accommodating. Having stayed at this hotel 4 times so far this year I would highly recommended it

Marijana Camur

Super nice and polite staff always ready to help, cleaning ladies were doing great job, whole hotel was clean and tidy. Pool was great, enough comfy sunbeds and great food! Lot of beautiful beaches near hotel, and good restaurants. 10/10

andrena mckune

Had a fabulous stay at this hotel. The whole place is so beautiful and clean, Very friendly staff. The entertainment team where excellent! Naomi and Karim especially. Both extremely friendly and helpful. My hubby and I loved the stretch classes, and my son had a boxing lesson with karim. The service at times was a little slow during meals for drinks, but otherwise fabulous. Hope to visit another Barceló resort again in the future.

Jason Seaborn

We came for a much needed break and chose this resort due to its reviews. I can honestly say we were not disappointed by the resort. Our room was very clean and tidy and the maid very friendly when saw her. She also did a great job. The areas around the rooms and the grounds around the block were very clean also. The restaurant food was always well presented and plenty of choice. Staff were helpful. One stood out, Judith who was very pleasant and greeted us at the door and spoke to us and explained things when we first arrived and was always happy. Pool area and bars were looked after, the only one thing I would say was the bar at night sometimes had a bit of a queue to get served at.

Drew P

Firstly, TALK TO VINCE! He's the experience/excursions rep, he knows his stuff. Planned an awesome day out on the sea; snorkelling, lunch, and drinks included all at very decent prices. Many more options are available, like off-road buggy rides, water parks, and so on. Anyway, we weren't meant to, but WE SAW DOLPHINS!!! Now that's out of the way, we stayed in the adults only as all-inclusive plus. There's about 7 or so places to eat included, some you have to book, you get a voucher for a taster menu at a few of the others which are all very tasty. The location is incredible, right on the marina with 360 degree great views, the sea is like glitter, weather is always nice all year round. You can walk all the way down the beach front into town in around 30 mins. This is probably now my favourite place I've ever holidayed. Me and my girlfriend loved every second of it. The staff are all very friendly, the beach front bar does the best mojitos, all the bars serve a HUGE range on drinks and none of that premixed junk that gives you tummy ache, all branded booze and not a measure in sight 😉

Hugo Helms

Hi all, Me and my girlfriend stayed in this resort for a week and I have to say I’m struggling to find fault! The staff were super friendly and helpful, the rooms and entire hotel was clean and tidy. The location was fantastic with an amazing beach 2 minutes walk away. The pools were clean and huge! There was always free sun beds to use as well. The food was good too, the only thing was the buffet got a bit same old by the end of the week, but there was plenty of restaurants near the resort if we fancied a change. Had an amazing time. Thanks team at Barceló.

Matty

Room was amazing great entertainment and helpful and good service, will return again next year. Reception was excellent and very helpful , beautiful hotel will recommend to friends and family in near future x

Nadine

We chose this hotel because of the very good price. Our bungalow was a bit old, but offered plenty of space for two people. The grounds and the rooms could be looked after a bit better, because it is actually really nice. After we were a bit shocked by the state of the room on the first day, it was thoroughly cleaned on the second day and some things were replaced, such as the frying pan. Unfortunately, our previous tenant left the kitchen quite dirty, but we cleaned it up ourselves. Overall, good value for money, but not for everyone. If you want to spend the whole day in the hotel, you should look elsewhere.

tony montana

The hotel is currently undergoing refurbishment , so about half of their rooms will b fitted with solar panels and refurbished. To be honest this wasn't really bothering Us ,as there are two other swimming pools available out there if you need a quieter place. I noticed two bars with food and drinks and also a supermarket in front of the hotel which is great. Entertainment is happening in the afternoons as the main bar is closed at night. Rooms were clean , everything was working ( coffee maker, kettle etc). The bathroom and beds were nice too. The hotel is slightly away from the center ,so if you don't like 20 Minute hikes to the beach , take a taxi 🚕 should be about 4 e. Overall a very quiet,and relaxing place , and I will probably stay there again as it was great. Our room wasn't cleaned,and I never get fresh towels,but our stay was short , and I didn't bother about it anyway. But don't Expect 5star , if you pay a discounted price in High season.

G. M.K

We have enjoyed our stay. The place is a bit run down, but there's major renovation works being carried out at the moment. I believe the place will be brilliant once it's done. Would definitely go back

Alistair Gowans

These apartments do exactly what they say on the tin! If you're looking for 5* it's not for you. They are functional, comfortable and have everything you need for a cheap, no frills holiday.

Michal Patyjewicz

It's ok, seems to be a tourist only location for brits. Pool closes at 6??? Most amenities available apart from the oven, iron or laundry. Could be a lot cleaner as well.
