Sheets are super duper clean. House is so tidy and has got everything you need. Kian is very friendly. Pre-warmed our house so we were so comfortable arrriving late at night in the middle of winter and pouring rain.
Will definitely come back. Felt so safe. Bed super comfortable and well presented.

Really helpful staff. Wifi in my room was really slow at first but when I told them. They brought some wifi repeater to boost the connection to my room. The guy from the reception was really nice.
