Thank you for the 5 star rating Duwana..
10/10! Duwana and guests were a joy to work with. Fyi, VRBO had multiple global outages this weekend and my 5 star rating score will not go through properly for them. I put in a ticket to fix but I want to share here too, they were 5 star guests and it would be an honor to host them again and again. It was a pleasure working together and look forward to you coming back.
