"The place was beautiful, even in the single night we were there it looked great. So it was unfortunate that the bed wasn't made nor were the sheets washed. The place also smelled a lot of dogs and their excrement. And the dogs barked and got really loud when you went to the bathroom. I would like to try and stay again if it were more clean, and actually meet the the owner, they were very accommodating and we got in and out with no problem"
