Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### paul c. 24 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful location The house is very nice and very spacious, the only downfall is the lack of bins provided, we were there for 6 days and this is when it becomes a problem. That been said we had a great time and i would still give it 10/10 ##### paul c.
