It's a bit lower than the 5 star review even though it is very new and nicely equipped. The daily housekeeping was particularly substandard. We stayed for 4 nights, and one day the hot chocolate packages were not replaced, another day the empty Kleenex box was not replaced, and the next day the used tea cups and saucers and the hand towel were not replaced, and even though the toilet paper roll was almost used up there were no additional rolls provided. These are pretty standard stuff in daily housekeeping.
