This is an excellently hosted property. We had a personal situation arise during our stay; the host was available and went above and beyond at every turn. It is mostly a younger crowd and parking is hit or miss though the garage is adjacent and available. The property itself is modern and very clean. The layout was perfect for our family of three.
