The accommodation suited our needs. We all had a bed each. Bathroom was spacious and towels were renewed every day. The owners were friendly, contacted me when we were late for check in. Overall it was a convenient stay, close to everything we needed.

For a group perfect. Unit clean on arrival could do with a few updates though.
