Provided pictures as evidence of dirty oven, received response of “that’s a lot of crumbs” - no apologies….. stains on bedsheets, rusty pans, rusty bbq and my travel partner mentioned the ensuite room was dusty…..enough with the negatives. Really nice backyard. Modern house, spacious open plan kitchen, dining and living area. Safe neighbourhood, you can hear birds at night and also the stars on a clear night. Close to shops. ##### Justin Stayed 8 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### esther g.
