Review Score:   6
Summary: Dishwasher is a must. Cleanliness of cooking equipment lacking (no dishwasher, eco products?). Limited surfaces for food preparation or computer/printer connection. Beautiful bathroom upstairs, but sink has no mixer tap nor plug, and wet shaving is a trial given the mirror situation. Sleep quality affected by too small bed size.Unfortunately not the property for us.
