The internet didn't work there was no connection so the streaming on the television had to be through the hotspot on my phone at my expense. The bathroom sinks were clogged and didn't drain only one sink in the ensuite was able to be used. The iron is faulty and keeps turning off and beeping saying there is a leak a bit of a safety concern. Overall the stay was ok. ##### James H.
