"YHIS IS A 2 BEDROOM PLACE THAT SAYS IT SLEEPS 7. It only had 2 rolls of toilet paper, ants were crawling on the wall and cockroaches ended up in our sons bed. One room had stained and dirty sheets. Of the 4 bicycles that were supplied, 2 were broken, no internet password was provided at the property and it took 15 minutes over the phone to obtain from the management. WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND THIS OR STAY THERE AGAIN."
