Great location - fun property

Gerard was a great host with excellent communication, perhaps one of the most attentive that I’ve ever experienced. The rental is just as cute as the pictures and centrally located to wonderful restaurants and shopping. I made the assumption while booking that the small couch was a pullout, it is not. The reference to a twin bed is a blowup. There is everything you need to cook meals. Great stay!!
