We were really impressed and pleasantly surprised by this apartment. Plenty of living space, nice kitchen, and great views. I really liked the open floor plan in main space—great for families with smaller children. Everything was super clean and all appliances worked efficiently. Extra bonus was how well stocked it was. I wasn’t expecting to have soap/detergent/cleaning supplies provided by the host. Would definitely stay again.

Perfect getaway

The condo was tastefully decorated and beds were comfortable. The view was outstanding! We all enjoyed our stay and having 3 king beds was a big plus in our book - especially for our two teen/young adults boys. We’ve been to Echota before, and this unit was one of our favorites.

Overpriced for what it was

Overall it was a fine stay for us booking last minute. We liked that there were a full set of dishes a cookware in the kitchen. The only complaints we had were there wasn’t enough toilet paper or paper towels for us. We had to buy our own and we barely used what came with the condo The towels had stains on them. Mainly all the white washcloths. The floors were very dusty in the living room and dining room. The decor of the antlers and weapons scared our kids.
