I got a deal through Living Social that was around $75 (regularly $225), for 4 hours of cleaning so I said "why not" I'll try them. When I called to set up my appointment they said that if I wanted my whole house clean (3000 sq ft) it would be $500 (WHAT!!). I said "no" I'll take what comes with the 4 hour cleaning. When the maid arrived (45 minutes late) she was able to clean 3 rooms (kitchen, bath, & Vacuum (counted as a room) )in 4 hours. The only thing in the bathroom that ended up clean was the shower, the sinks were not even rinsed out. I cleaned for only 2 hours after they left and was able to clean 3000 sq ft. Plus the stuff they did not do. I have been using maids for 10 years and this was the worst experience I've ever had.
