You can ask to see their notes and the guidance does say that they should allow it but don't be surprised if they refuse. Be aware that the bulk of their report is written after the assessment.
Yes you can have notes with you, but if you refer to them, explain why you are doing so to the assessor.
It's actually quite unlikely that they will ask to look around but if they do it is up to you whether you allow it or not, they are a guest in your house and have no more right to look than anybody else.
The PIP Claim has a section that deals with the assessment and has a list of the questions you are likely to be asked.
Good luck for Monday.

They should have, but may not have. I'm afraid there is little that you can do about this on the day.
