There was no mention that the garage was not available and i doubt that i would have booked if i had known. the house was comfortable but very very musty. Downstairs was almost impossible to sleep in and cupboards and drawers in the kitchen were very musty as well - the pantry reeked of mildew,. Some of the drawers had very old stuff to use particularly the cutlery. there were no instructions in the house and we had to get the property manager back to get the tv going and wing it with everything else. the barbecue area was old and grubby and i think almost unusable however the house has great potential but it does need a considerable amount of tlc to bring it up to scratch. ##### Sherilyn C.
