Really great place

This place was wonderful! John the host was very accommodating to our early arrival and just a very nice person. Super helpful with recommendations. This is a 2 bedroom apartment with a very nice private outdoor area. Really easy to get to and close to all the main areas by the water. Super clean and all the things you would need. We highly recommend this place.
