I would have liked to leave a positive review as the hosts have been kind. However a few things were sub sub standard. Kitchen stove cracked, pots and pans peeled off, appliances are grimy. Not a single clean chair outside. Had to hose a table and a chair before we could use them. I suggest a new set of clean kitchen implements with bond retaining against the guests who do not leave them clean. And always leave some clean chairs and table outside.Sorry but truth must be told.
