Excellent stay, value for money.
Pros:

Reasonable prices that are reflected online remained the same when I booked, no additional costs. The property is clean and secured.

Cons:

The parking space that is not considerate of guests leaving earlier, some guests block the way and do not wake up early to remove their cars.

Refreshing
Pros:

The privacy and scenery was perfect fine for me.

Cons:

The shower door and the shower spilling water, the height of the mounted table compared to the chair makes it hard to work on a work trip
