They couldnt even make the breakfast the way we ask for, the pool was green and the grass was long. The shower was leaking on the flour outside. Rat poo in the bed. Sliding door not working properly.

The place needs urgent attention, it looks good on pictures when u book but it is not well maintained, my room blinds couldn't closed well only halfway, spider webs on the wall I had 2 clean them before I sleep. No bell at the entrance gate u stand there for ages. Decorders were changed more than twice not responding. I don't why they still offer breakfast, it was 2 eggs a potion of mushrooms and bacon tht I told them that I dont eat but still brought it. My linen ws crispy u could see tht they didn't change it or they didn't iron it, not a single hanger on the wadrobes, no bath soaps or shower gels. Whoever owns or manages the Guesthouse needs to pay attention very urgently.
