We were very comfortable! Best shower ever!! The space is so well designed for a smaller space that feels roomy and has all the comforts. We were so close to the shops we go to. It was a very relaxing stay. The host was generous and available if wet had questions. I would stay here again!

The property was impressive, very clean, nice appliances, and exactly what the pictures represented. The cabinets were very well organized, making it very easy to find what you were looking for. This property had everything you needed for a restful stay. Kathy is a great host, and made sure everything was in good working order. My family and I would stay here if we were in the area again.
