8/10 Good
"The hotel was nice, clean, and the staff was helpful. The only thing we didn't like was that the temperature was impossible to regulate. It was too hot, we tried to open the window but there were no nets, so we ended up with flies in the room."

"Super clean and very comfy. The kitchen was very nice with everything you need for cooking. The only thing that was a bit confusing was the check in process, because the reception was in another location. It would be helpful if there were signs and they just emailed you the code to the key box with your key, and room number, rather than going offsite. Other than that, very much loved the cute cottage."
