Overall had a nice stay with the exception of the toilet. It was broken and kept running, never filled back up with water. We had to manually fix it each time we used it. We went to the desk three times to report and each time told it was fixed. It would work once and then we were back to fixing it manually. Not what you want to do while you are away. A bit disappointing.
