May 16, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location #### A bit tired but OK for what we needed We were a group of 9 adults mostly unrelated so we needed 8 beds. The house is generally a bit tired with all the lounge chairs needing attention. We specifically asked about upstairs showers - yes, there are 2 but they are adjacent so no good for a mixed group of adults - and the stable door on the 2nd toilet makes privacy difficult. We had to ask for the linen to make up a futon as we were not asked what bed configuration we needed. All little things (except the bathroom facilities) but they add up. Did not like the food left in the cupboards as much of it was out of date or opened. We were comfortable enough but only because we were out working all day every day. ##### Sharon R.
