Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
Muri is a lovely location but if you hire a car or a scooter every place is just as convenient as another. It all depends on what kind of service you want.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Hugely disappointing. Our holiday was compromised by grossly misleading and false images of the property. The bungalow is poorly maintained and presented. Meantime it should be relisted with accurate photos that represent its true condition and contents. The Fair Trading Act “prohibits traders from making misleading claims, meaning that the property must be as it was advertised to you when you booked”. This was not the case. All issues have been directed to the owner and Expedia for attention. A refund request is pending.
