We liked the location. It would've been nice to have more towels, washcloths, laundry soap, and more than 1 roll of toilet paper, instructions for the TV. Information on the area and tourist attractions. We will definitely recommend this place. We enjoyed exploring places.
I like that it was set in a quiet neighborhood. But still conveniently located to the Dunes and
Washington park. I would suggest bringing more bath towel. But other than that it was perfect for my son an i an we really enjoyed our stay.
I will never do that again, the property was stinky, smelly, molded, unsanitized, unlivable, and they lied about the whole booking, the house that was shown was not the property that we booked.
