Reviewer Type: Couple
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Nice and quiet location, despite being just off the main road. Large room, huge bathroom with good view. Comfortable bed too. Shared kitchen facilities were useful and convenient. Attentive and helpful host.
Negative: Quite a steep set of steps to get to the property as it’s set back from the main road. No tv in the room, although none stated on listing either so our expectations were met. Slightly less value for money in comparison to other properties we’ve stayed in during our trip.
Summary: Well located and spacious accommodation
