Liked: Cleanliness
The property was great! Although, at the end of the day, outlets in the main room we needed them in did not work, nor did the garbage disposal work. This was told prior to check out. The garbage disposal not working lead to a dealay in cleaning and i tried asking for a late check out accomodation and there was no response until after the check out time. That didnt sit too well with me because I got rapid responses all the other times i reached out, but when asking for an accomodation due to the properties inconvenience, no response until hours later. Other than that the property and location was great! Customer service could have been better on check out day otherwise the rate would have been a 4 instead of a 3.
