Good but room for improvement

Back door security could be better. Most bedroom windows could not be opened which meant little ventilation on hot days. Heat pump cooled lounge area only. Heavy decor beam above bed not very secure. Lots of neighbors. Otherwise good. Nice and central

Just Okay

This property was fine for a one night stay, but I would recommend finding somewhere better. The big draw for us was the hot tub/spa. But it was so dirty and the scum line was so thick that no one felt comfortable getting in. Additionally, the bathroom where the shower is was full of bugs and literal plants growing from the outside of the house in. Furthermore, we indicated that there would be 6 people on our reservation but there were only 4 towels provided. There was also not enough bedding for the uncomfortable pullout. The messaging with whoever manages the property was inconsistent and inconsiderate.

Well equipped, comfortable and clean

Nice and spacious, bed was comfortable and it had a well equipped kitchen, the walk into town is about 25 minutes mostly along the river, so very pleasant, off street parking is a bonus, we enjoyed our stay. Main negative is, there was a horrible damp smell, we discovered mid week, if we kept the bathroom door shut, it was a lot better

It was the right choice!

So easy to come and go. Easy to fall asleep and comfortable beds. The lounge is welcoming and the hot tub was an absolute pleasure. The location was perfect as it was a short distance to literally everything and everywhere we went. The hosts were very friendly and easy to communicate with. You won’t regret staying here and you’ll long to return.
