Misleading advertising so disappointed
The listing is inaccurate there is no spa, the bbq was so rusty we could not use it. The pillows are so lumpy you could not sleep on them. Only two beds were made up for us despite there being 4 people.
The listing didn’t say you share the location with the owner.
