There was no water to wash or shower in the morning. The swimming pool was dirty and didn’t resemble the photo shown when booking.

There was no water and this wasn't explained to us. Also Google maps directed us in a way that took us on a road with unmarked huge speed bumps that damaged the car. Should put a warning about that for sure. Grounds were nice and the place was clean and comfortable.
