Location was great. Only issues were these:.Dishwasher doesn't clean dishes. Knives had peanut butter, forks had dirty food on them. Dryer does not dry clothes. Hair on wall of shower from previous guest. Advertised bicycle had flat tire No bbq grill as this was the one we most disappointed in. It's on the photos and listed as part of the package. We were given a 35 credit/refund.
