Price was not worth bad neighborhood
Disappointed in the location, price, length of wifi password, the property welcome guide was online only and did not work to be downloaded. No onsite directions for the pool heater or hottub. The hot tub came on after 230 am both nights shooting water out and running loudly. Tried to ask property manager but the explanations did not work.
