The property was easy to get to and the space was clean. The hosts was really attentive and provided great instructions. The only doenside was the construction happening in front of the entrance. Really hard to dropoff and to get in the area.

The apartment itself was fine, but there was no replacement toilet paper around and I realized this during hours when the owner/management were unreachable; while I could’ve been replenished in the morning, I had to leave. It was too late.
