Nice family home. Was great for family of 5. Boys played games, only thing missing was dining room table and tub jets were out of order. But had two bar sitting areas so still worked great

Richard H.

Liked: Location
Disliked: Cleanliness
The house was nice but there were several things that need to be looked after.1. The filter coffee machine had no container to put the coffee in - so was useless.2. The sink in the shared bathroom (not Master Bathroom) would not drain.3. Sheets, towels, etc were in the dryer when we arrived. I had to fold them, otherwise we could not use the washer-dryer.4. There was a woman's underwear in the master bathroom on the folded towel rack!! Really bad to have to come to a house that does this and one is suppose to use the towels!5. No coat hangers - which was quickly resolved but only for 3 guest capacity and we were 6 people. So in conclusion - disappointed on how the property was presented and managed for our stay.
