Disliked: Cleanliness
Although there are 4 bedrooms, there is only one toilet in the whole house! One(upstairs)of the 2 bathrooms(both have no toilet facility) is smelly!

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
This retro house has only one toilet for four bedrooms. It was totally unacceptable for four travellers. There were NO instructions about anything.
It reflects badly on your company to list such poor accommodation

Great view and location. Felt like we went back to grandma’s house. The place is missing some modern amenities.
