We are a group of discerning women who travel somewhat frequently and, admittedly, have high standards. I would not rank this as a 9.8. The house is tired; it was not well cleaned before our arrival - 2 showers were blocked and some essentials were not provided - for example, no extra toilet paper, no shampoo, no body wash, no paper towels or laundry detergent. In a property of this caliber, I consider these extras to be basic, especially when guests are coming from overseas. Having said that, we had a delightful stay in the area, although I'm sad to say that we would not rent this property again.
