One chair in the room so if we wanted to watch TV during the day, while it was raining outside we would have to lie on the bed. When I booked nowhere was any indication of an 'outdoor kitchen'. The photographs on the website are misleading and indicate false advertising. The fridge needs to be defrosted and cleaned. On arrival we rang the doorbell three times and only after I phoned someone responded. Wifi did not work.
