decent room and countryside views

useful kitchenetteshort staygreen hillsclean towelscoffee not replenishedmilk not replenished
the beautiful studio had everything i needed for a short stay. a bathtub was even on the balcony overlooking the green hills. the kitchenette was useful for making breakfast and snacks.
my tea and coffee weren't replenished , i found this a bit annoying. milk also wasn't replenished (i did expect that to be topped up). i also couldn't find anyone to ask for clean towels.
