I have always had to put up curtain rails of one sort or another in properties I have rented. If you are worried about holes, they are fairly easy to fill before leaving but I've never had a complaint about curtain pole/rail holes. You can get tension poles but they aren't always able to hold the weight of curtains so make sure you get one that has good springs in them.0

Is this a furnished or unfurnished property? If the former, it's not unreasonable to expect there to be blinds or curtains in all the habitable rooms.No free lunch, and no free laptop0
