Nice view from house but not near restaurants
The house is well maintained and has a beautiful view. The property manager was "all business" - but was responsive when help was requested. Only one bedroom was made available - the other bedrooms were locked. (I some times am restless and might have made use of the second bedroom - though in all fairness I didn't raise the issue.)

The Black Batch stay
Property was as advertised in the photos, lovely views and very modern with everything you need.
Although it is not self check-in Barry was there promptly when we advised of arrival and departure time.
Beds could do with an upgrade as they were not very comfortable, but this also a personal thing and others may be OK with them.
Would book again.

Florence Ave Home
The house itself was beautiful and fit our family of 5 comfortably. Located within walking distance to town which is always a plus. Most importantly it was clean.
Only downside, it was double the price of an equal home we stayed at in Russell the week prior, but was missing key things most people don’t travel with; like hand soap.
