What recent reviews say

Most guests praise the spacious layout, cleanliness, and owner Roseline's helpfulness, making it popular for families and groups. One older negative review flags maintenance lapses and photo-reality gaps, though recent stays show these mostly resolved.

Based on limited recent reviews, so treat this as low-confidence.
