Good to have all the cleaning tools and vacuum cleaner. The BBQ is good and equipped. It’s good that the house provided floaty and kid’s life jackets for kids to use the swimming pool. The shower in the separated bathroom will be better if they have install the shower head with hose instead of mounted on the wall. ##### karen t.
