So much better than a motel!
We loved this Vrbo! It was older but well maintained. The kitchen cabinets were stocked enough for our basic needs and the owner even had condiments and drinks in the fridge for us. The bathrooms were stocked with shampoo, conditioner and soap (good brands too). The laundry machines were easy to use and quick to wash and dry clothes. The house is close to grocery stores and restaurants, which was really nice. And a plus is it's in a nice neighborhood. My daughter and I went running a couple times while we stayed there and we felt completely safe. We'd 100% stay there again if we're in the area.
