Booked 7 rooms no availability after payment
I booked and paid for 7 rooms. When our family arrived they only had 2 rooms. The manager argued with me over the phone for 10 minutes and refused to give a refund. There was no follow up or apology

Clean but poor service
Nicely kept facility. We stayed in the 3 bedroom family house which was lovely with plenty of room and a fully stocked kitchen. Downsides: they were not prepared for our arrival, we had to wait for our room to be ready even though we arrived well after check-in time...they stated breakfast started at 7am but at 7:30 we were still waiting for them to get started cooking which made us late for an appointment...and there was broken glass out on the patio which our daughter cut her hand on.
