Everything provided, sheets, towels but also everything in the kitchen

Hygiene in the downstairs bedroom, some small crawling insects and spiders found. But overall very good

The house was great. Very comfortable. The heating was great, not limited to a certain temperature like some properties we've stayed in. It was -3 but lovely and warm inside. Lots of space. A quiet neighborhood. Close to a corner shop and takeaways. We will book there again when we are in the area.
