The property has a lot of pots and plants, pleasant backyard. The check-in instruction is quite clear, it helps check in process is very easy, especially for our late arrival in the evening. The pet-friendliness is absolutely a plus. That is one of the reasons why we chose this place. The surrounding area is quiet beach town, good for a weekend away.

Great location, all amenities - exactly what was described. We found back courtyard lovely but dog had to use grass so we had to take her outside property for her breaks. Being medium sized perhaps smaller dog would manage better.
