Overall the stay was pleasant. There was a hiccup with first arrivals and the code for the door not working but the hosts were more than quick to respond and help out. The hosts were great at communication with any and all questions I had. very lovely stay. :-)
Very clean, good management they refunded me when the hot tub had an issue with no problems and are replacing it. Great air conditioner which we needed since 110 degrees! Recommend it!
Master closet door handle loose, dishes in kitchen dusty, mirror on master bathroom dusty, broken kitchen stool feet rest, needs upgrades for house audio.
