The apartment was spacious and in a very good location, which were definitely its strongest points. Unfortunately, the overall quality did not match the price we paid.Many of the fixtures and furnishings felt very cheap and poorly constructed. The toilet seat was held up with an elastic band, which we found unpleasant and unhygienic. There was also nowhere to wash your hands near the toilet, meaning you had to walk to the other end of the gîte to use a sink. The handrail on the stairs also felt poorly constructed, while the chairs and sofa were cheap and uncomfortable.The kitchen was spacious, but some of the utensils and equipment provided were of such poor quality that they were almost useless.Most disappointing was being charged extra for towels. Considering the price we had already paid for the accommodation, we felt charging additionally for something as basic as towels was unreasonable.Overall, the location and space were good, but the standard of the furnishings, equipment and attention to practical details simply did not reflect the price.
