One was the towels. 7 adults for 3 days and only 6 towels. There should have been a better option here. Had to do laundry on my trip. Not the best. Also, the garbage restrictions were inconvenient. 8 people, cooked 6 meals there and only two bags of garbage. That was weird. The house was great, the back porch was the best. We loved staying there. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2023 ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [Teton Mountain Lodge and Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jackson-Hole-Hotels-Teton-Mountain-Lodge-And-Spa-A-Noble-House-Resort.h889880.Hotel-Information) > - [TownePlace Suites by Marriott Champaign Urbana/Campustown](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Champaign-Hotels-TownePlace-Suites-By-Marriott-Champaign-UrbanaCampustown.h11070560.Hotel-Information) > - [Sports Illustrated Resorts Chicago](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chicago-Hotels-Sports-Illustrated-Resorts-Chicago.h9119528.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotels in Tacloban](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tacloban-Hotels.d3357.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > - [Level Chicago – Old Town](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chicago-Hotels-LEVEL-Furnished-Living-Chicago.h39805843.Hotel-Information) > - [Spa Hotels in Northamptonshire](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Northamptonshire-Spa-Hotels.0-0-d6046224-tSpaHotels.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > - [Wine Valley Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Santa-Barbara-Hotels-Wine-Valley-Inn.h41236.Hotel-Information) > - [Sonesta ES Suites Chicago Downtown Magnificent Mile - Medical](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chicago-Hotels-Sonesta-ES-Suites-Chicago-Downtown.h25929.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotels with Breakfast in Dubai](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dubai-Hotels-Hotel-With-Breakfast.0-0-d6053839-thotelwithbreakfast.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Hotel Versey Chicago Lincoln Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chicago-Hotels-Hotel-Versey-Chicago-Lincoln-Park.h22993.Hotel-Information) > - [FOUND Hotel Chicago River North](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chicago-Hotels-FOUND-Hotel-Chicago.h113779814.Hotel-Information) > - [Farmstay Italy](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Italy-Agritourism.d86-aaAgritourism.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > - [The Royal Sonesta Chicago Downtown](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chicago-Hotels-Royal-Sonesta-Chicago-Downtown.h17543.Hotel-Information) > - [Trump International Hotel & Tower Chicago](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chicago-Hotels-Trump-International-Hotel-Tower-Chicago.h1723215.Hotel-Information) > - [The Chicago Hotel Collection - Magnificent Mile](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chicago-Hotels-Hotel-Audrey.h21619.Hotel-Information) > - [Club Quarters Hotel, Central Loop, Chicago](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chicago-Hotels-Club-Quarters-Hotel.h565746.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotel Riu Plaza Chicago](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chicago-Hotels-Hotel-Riu-Plaza-Chicago.h102622712.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > - [Flights from Edinburgh (EDI) to Fort Lauderdale (FLL)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/edi/fll/edinburgh-to-fort-lauderdale) > - [Flights from Exeter (EXT-Exeter Intl.) to London (LON-All Airports)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/ext/lon/exeter-to-london) ### Activities ### Packages > - [Cilento Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cilento.d6049595.Holidays-City-Breaks) > - [Placencia Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Placencia.d12041.Holidays-City-Breaks) ### General > - [Visit Fabron](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nice-Fabron.dx3000661081) ---
