The flat as such is modern, quiet and well-situated.
Our problems were: to get at the key safe, we had to lie almost flat in the rain and dark, using a mobile phone light, in order to open it.
Then the TV did not work (NO SIGNAL) and the cupboards in the 2nd bedroom - which we had advised would be used - were padlocked: nowhere to put clothes. Last, the kitchen and fridge need a good cleaning. If these things are sorted out, it will be a great place to stay!
