Liked: Communication, location
Disliked: Cleanliness
The layout of the space, comfort of the beds, location, and communication with the owners were all great. There was an appliance glitch when we first arrived, but the owners worked to make it right quickly. Some additional TLC of the property could go a long way to make this a 5 star property.
