Not my cup of tea!
If you don’t mind uncomfortable beds and bedrooms so small that you can’t fit anything else in them, then this is the place to stay. Dishwasher was broken, so we found dirty cups, plates and utensils in the cupboards. Toaster was broken, stove didn’t light, bedside lights were either nonexistent or didn’t work. They need to have a clean out, because I’m not sure what style they were going for 🤔

Never recieved any check in details despite the host insisting they sent them to us. After a 5 hour drive had to wait for a quite a while to finally recieve the code for the keys. Never had any internet connection throughout our stay(3 nights/4 days), host has promised a partial refund, but are yet to see that appear on our CC....
