Yes it was a clean space, but the rental itself was different than the pictures provided. There are multiple rentals in one area. The driveway was very difficult to find at night, but I was glad the space was clean. Overall, the listing needs update pictures showing Suite B so you know what to expect and where to go.

Exactly what we needed for a quick overnight stay to get easily to the airport. Great shower-fantastic water pressure! Comfortable bed. It is right in the middle of a neighborhood so normal city noises but the AC unit drowned it out! Would stay here again.

I was unable to stay because the room was not ready when I arrived at the scheduled time and no one was there to assist me. I find it curious that they would rate my stay since I wasn’t able to occupy the room.

Convenient to the town & beach. Good wi fi access. Lovely bathroom & luxurious bed linens. Good parking. Friendly, walkable neighborhood. Nice patio access. Private & quiet. Nice hosts. Outdoor kitchen was fun to use, as there is no rain in summer. Might be a problem in winter rain season.
