Not anything to be honest , every need was taking care of. ##### WILLIAM ### 10/10 Excellent #### Josh C. 16 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Amazing location and beautiful place! I stayed here in a group of 8 and it felt like more than enough room for us all. Beautiful living space and beautiful kitchen as hang out areas. The four bedrooms and three bathrooms worked very well. The only downfalls were steep cases for hauling luggage up and down, and if you are a light sleeper then bring ear plugs and a eye mask as seagulls are 24/7 and the curtains are not blackout, which are totally fine if you want to seize the day in the amazing St. Andrew’s!! ##### Josh C.
