We hosted a family Christmas gathering here and it was absolutely wonderful. The home was stocked with so many thoughtful extras—plenty of towels, toilet paper, soaps, paper towels, dishwasher supplies, and a well-equipped kitchen with pans and everything we needed. The rooftop was spectacular with a beautiful view, and we even took our family Christmas photos up there. Truly a special place and a perfect stay.

This is a great property and I would love to come back when the weather is warm to enjoy the rooftop deck. It has a fabulous view and it's well equipped. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked with coffee and water and ice in the refrigerator door.It wasn't an issue with our teens and adults... but there are multi levels and I think that would be scary with toddlers...the only reason I gave it a 4 star for families. Im really just thinking young children. We lived it!
