I’m afraid 5 days without hot water and two days with lukewarm water was not on.Whilst mine host was sunning in. Croatia we had to do without shower or hot water from the tap. I do think the boiler requires some work doing to it and would recommend asking if this has been done.Mine hosts are very pleasant people but don’t seem to concentrate sufficiently on their paying guests comfort.
