The layout was nice, cosy and spacious. The blinds in some areas did not cover the windows completely and the last person to stay cooked curry, making the place smell like an Indian restaurant, but that's ok, I left the doors and windows ooen for a few hours, something the cleaners maybe should have done before we arrived. No sponge left for us to wipe over table or benches after washing dishes, only a dish brush.
