Over all, everything was great! One little incident but it was taken care of and Cletus was a hoot! Thank you for everything, especially the sheets and towels!

Nice Location...
The location was nice. The place was not very clean, especially the dishes. Pots and pans were falling apart and very greasy. Before checking in we were charged extra for our dogs and two other guests (we had seven guests in total), so make sure that you give them the information for each guest and any pets that will be coming with you because they will charge you extra for them if they are not on your initial reservation. They did not accept the extra payment on VRBO, which made me very nervous, as VRBO always says to not submit payment outside of the app for security purposes, but we could not check in until the extra $240 was paid. They will not contact you through VRBO so keep an eye on your email or you will miss the communication, like I did. Overall the house itself was fine.

Great Property
Enjoyed our stay at Aunt Jane's. The apartment was clean and equipped with necessities.
The location is excellent. In close walking distance to Jet Express and the entire downtown area.
Fantastic location, reasonably priced, excellent value and wonderfully friendly onsite owners. Would certainly stay again with friends & family. Please understand that PIB is an active island where folks go to unwind, if you are looking for peace & quiet - probably better to visit a different island.

Right in the Downtown district of Put-In Bay. Walk to most areas. Very clean property with plenty of room, full kitchen and nice back yard for entertaining and a cookout. Great communication form the owner and gave us several suggestions on what to do... Will be back here again.
