Generally a lovely place. Almost everything. The problem of the key code being given wrong details. Also, we were not aware that we wouldn't be able to unload directly outside the house. In the kitchen the utensils could have been better. No tongs, fish slice or large spoons, just wooden or silicone which were not easy to scoop with.
