Dining room chairs are not stable, oven filthy, cupboards filthy, a few tiles are very loose near bedrooms. Shower in laundry was mouldy & unclean. Needs to be cleaned thoroughly. The cleaners should do a better job. Looking for the fitness centre only a bicycle available. Location was good though. Overall we had a good time anyway. ##### Antonio C.

Apr 16, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location #### Overall good, mixed feelings The property was easy to find, the location was quiet and felt overall good.I was concerned when I realised that the accommodation may have others straying. The house had been converted into 2 units.Within the first few hours this was confirmed because I saw a man in the back yard, through the window while I was changing my daughter. My children and I were the first to arrive out of our group. I felt uncomfortable because I wasn't sure if this person could access our unit via the back of the property.We did not access the back yard due to this. ##### Jessica J.
