No microwave in room
Blinds don’t cover the window so leering light in
Tap in basin too long so water hits you .

Great stay
Pros:

Staff were lovely, room was comfortable, cute stable door, close to play equipment for kids

Cons:

That’s a hard one.. the constant high pitch machine from 7-10pm (roughly) to keep the bats away prevented going to sleep peacefully. Earbuds helped. Might need to consider other bat options. Would be fine if you don’t sleep until late or you have tinnitus.

Unfortunately the condo
Pros:

Fabulous location and excellent food.

Nicely appointed and decorated rooms create a good vibe

Cons:

Our bed was probably the most uncomfortable bed that we have ever slept on.

It was like a trampoline and neither of us hardly got any sleep and both got up with sore backs, shoulder etc.
