6/10 Okay

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location
Disliked: Communication
The room was fine. It was more cramped than we were expecting but we made do. It was the extra fees that were added that was upsetting. Pay attention before you hit buy and lose out like we did. Neither VRBO nor the host was helpful in resolving my issue.Also, the lady attending the pool and making sure everyone had wristbands is crazy rude. The elevator is questionable as well.
