mixed feelings about the stay
unsafe door emergency lock
the location had great views over the bay.
The door locks felt unsafe during an emergency, as i could only lock and unlock with the key. I was concerned about quick exits. i think updating the door security would be beneficial for peace of mind.

attentive host really good kindness helpfulness unsafe lock missing interaction lacking approach
Iain and Lindsay were very nice hosts . They promptly answered all questions before and . I found their kindness and helpfulness really good. The attention to detail were great what I expected.
The door locks concerned me.. They require a key for both locking and unlocking. This could be unsafe during an emergency. I also found the lack of face-to-face interaction disappointing. There was no formal meet and greet.
