Cute little spot
This efficiency apt. Was just as advertised. Very close to the eog friendly beach and the unit was dog friendly as well. The only thing we did not love was the rock used as landscape as it was rough on our dogs feet. But that was really a non issue we just picked him up over them. We will rent from this place again. Thank you for having quick responses to all my questions.
