Jul 9, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Ok stay The house is in a great location. My main issue were the beds were quite uncomfortable (particularly the bed in the front room near the door and the main bedroom). There are random items around the house (like in the walk in robe) that makes the house feel disorganised. Overall, it wad fine but could have been better. ##### Linda N.
