Oct 27, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, communication Disliked: Check-in We stayed here for a long weekend with couples and one single, but unfortunately, the house wasn’t suitable for a group of friends or multiple couples. With only one toilet and one bathroom, it was quite inconvenient. We definitely wouldn’t recommend this place and won’t be coming back. In additional the kitchen was under- equipped with a basic but important to be in the kitchen. ##### Suzan Z.
