Fun and family friendly
We enjoyed our stay very much! There was plenty to do for all ages. The home was warm and well lit upon arriving late at night. The beds were comfortable and the neighborhood seemed safe. My only complaint is that it smells like pets ( which is under standable as it's a pet-friendly location) Bars and a little market all close by. We will be staying here again!
