Serious problems with plumbing spoil this house

When we arrived at this house we were pleased - it was well equipped and spacious. The description says the house is "pleasant luxury of modern comfort" - which I think is a bit of a stretch. We thought "basic and comfortable" would be more fitting.
It's well located and is close to the most divine bakery and the supermarket Smatch.
On arrival we were greeted by the owner who was very friendly and gave us plenty of useful information on restaurants, attractions and parking.
2 out of the 3 bedrooms are adjoined by a staircase, which is fine for parents and kids, but not if there's x3 couples in total staying in the house.
What really lets this house down is the (only) bathroom and poor plumbing. The shower is handheld, so you have to sit in the bath while showering. In addition, we discovered that the the hot water only comes on in 3 minute bursts so you have - 3 minutes of hot water, 3 minutes of cold water, 3 mins hot, 3 mins cold - making it very diificult to shower properly, even if you're really quick! We all ended up taking baths which made the process of getting ready and out exploring Bruges a bit lengthy.
In my opinion, being able to bathe is a basic requirement! So, I will not be recommending this property to family and friends.
I would recommend Bruges though - beautiful and plenty to do.

Our listing description mentions clearly : 2 bedrooms (not 3 as said in the comments) 1 bathroom
sleeps 2-5 people and is not meant for 3 couples as said in the comments. We never accept more people.
The mentioned problems with " 3 min hot water" are impossible as the hot water comes from a contineous flow-through condens kettle ( continuous supply of water is continuously heated.
We did not receive any remark on bad functioning nor from guests and nor from our cleaning people, we checked the heating, we did not encounter any of described problems.
Our guests are invited to call us if any problem in the house occurs, we are available and we live not far from the house. The guests should have done so.
Our house has obtained an official holiday rental permit and has been listed 'certified for quality' by the Flemish Board of Toerism,this in February 2011 after a severe audit and this following a new decree of the Flemish Government. Not many succeeded ...
