"This place is stunning and has absolutely everything you need provided. You literally don't need to take anything but clothes! Such a high standard of decor, just absolutely loved it. More pictures are needed on the listing because it is really under sold. You won't be disappointed if you book here. It is within easy walking distance to everything you need. Thanks for a great stay!!"  Julie
