Only other niggle was that while the apartment was well kitted out in general, we had to go out and buy hand wash and toilet roll.

Great location, close and walkable to center of town, but also quiet and peaceful. Unfortunately we had packed thinking the washing machine was working, which it is not.

The problem came the next morning, cooked breakfast took an hour to arrive, without sausage. No real explanation until it arrived and no genuine apology. There was also lipstick on the glass that I had pored orange juice into and when I pointed this out all I got was oh dear and a giggle.we also wanted to leave early and this waiting around kept us back, . disappointing end to our stay."
