Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location
We enjoyed our stay, our accommodation met most of our needs. It was clean, it was spacious for the 3 of us, communication was good and clear and it was good value for money given the last minute booking on our end as well. One thing I would recommend is wifi, a microwave and hopefully in the future a built in air con because it was super hot! Thankfully though, there were fans provided which did help in some way. Thank you again for having us.
