"The property is small and quaint. We’ve stayed there a few times now. Newly renovated. The rooms are big. The layout is a bit awkward. Sink outside the bathroom. Some rooms have a bedroom but no bedroom door. Needs wider and longer blackout curtains. The price is worth it even for its awkwardness."
