Very nice. Clean, lovely view. A couple of issues: the water faucet in the kitchen sometimes just stops working. Nobody touches the lever, it just stops. Period! Also, with all those beds and 3 bathrooms, why would you have exactly ONE hairdryer, and that one improbably hidden in the laundry room??

Excellent stay - photos under sell the place

The place was very nice and well laid out with plenty of room. Very bright and open living room and kitchen. Extremally close to town (can walk everywhere or take public transportation). Think the photos of the place undersold it in the summer
