Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
House is in a great location, amenities in kitchen and laundry are basic but as required and clean for short stay where bulk of time is spent out in the city. Some small maintenance items could be looked after (hooks, toilet roll holders and shower head were in various states of needed repair) but everything worked and the check in/ out was smooth and straightforward.
