Nice booking although some amenities were inoperable (whirlpool, washer, stove) Stove was fixed after 3 days! The primary reason I booked was for the whirlpool but unfortunately it was inoperable (still may be because it needs replacing along with the washer) other then that, the balcony is relaxing :) not so stress-free but it was nice
