Disliked: Location, listing accuracy
Nogo
Most uninviting entrance to a holiday let, I have ever seen.
Not suitable for elderly people as fire escape used as entrance. Interior in need of refurb,

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication
Pluses: good location, quirky property, clean, check in easy, beds really comfy, linen and towels sparkly white Not so good: entrance pretty dire (expected given reviews), could be better equipped (sleeps 6, but only 3 forks, 4 dining chairs, 4 side plates, no chopping board, grill pan etc), bedrooms sparse - really just a hanging rail (no tables, chest of drawers etc despite plenty of room, so no where to put a bag or anything), on a busy riad and quite noisy (especislly given flimsy curtains that dont draw), boiler also really noisy
