Disliked: Cleanliness
Never again!
When you come from another country for most of us Canada and pay the price we did for this property these are the reasons why never again! 1. Belfast sink had large chip and crack 2. No salad box in fridge 3. All kitchen cupboard doors damaged and shabby 4. No outside bin or recycling facilities. 5. No access to balcony, rotting wood. 6. Some windows had coverings but many did not, not ideal for the bedrooms! 7. Cookware was very old and frying pan was unusable 8. Door frames were out of alignment such that it made opening or closing the front door very difficult. 9. Living room only had enough seats for 3 to 4 people to lounge comfortably. Challenging when we had 7 people renting. 10. When we arrived no oil for heating radiators 11. Dirty and lack of finishing everywhere 12. No extra towels, towels given were thin and ragged 13. Bedding poor quality and no extra 14. Beds very uncomfortable, all of them, especially downstairs 15. Stove top not working properly 16. Limited supplies - no hand soap, no outdoor washing line, only 2 outdoor chairs that we dirty as well as the outdoor table, no bath mats which made it slippery getting out of the shower/bath tub. 17. Upstairs hot water pressure none existent when downstairs water being used e.g. shower, dishwasher, washing machine 18. Small washing machine for max 8 people 19. Windows that would not open, or once open, would not close.

Etwas in die Jahre gekommenen aber wunderschön
Tolle Lage, gute Ausstattung. Drei sehr gute Bäder, Küchenausstattung müsste erneuert werden (Pfannen, Backblech, defekte Kaffeemaschine). Perfekt für Wanderungen in der Umgebung.
