Great location. Easy to find. Safe area. Parking spot designated for us. Wish they provided clean towels after a few days.
We rented this out for just a couple of days, but everything was clean and tidy. The neighborhood was peaceful and quiet as well. We enjoyed it since it was calm and the host answered any questions we had and gave us a detailed list on how to check in and out, so we had no issues with that. If available we would stay here again!

Dirty experience
When we arrived at 1:30am we walked into a room that had not been cleaned. Bed was not made, dirty towels in the bathroom floor, floors covered in dirt & hair, no clean towels, no toilet paper. We literally laid on top of the bed linens and covered up with beach towels. We were up & down all night because we just felt “dirty”. And because it was so late when we got there it was hard to find another place to go. So, I emailed the host and he answered me around 8am & said he could send his cleaning lady but I said no I want a refund & do not want to stay here. He offered me half of the one night stay & the cleaning fee. I was thinking ummm I’m willing to pay for the one night but refund me the rest of my money. He said they have a strict cancellation policy and I said I understand that but I also expect to show up to a place that has been cleaned and fresh linens on the bed and clean towels. We couldn’t even take a shower and had been on the road for like 8 hours. He finally agreed to half of my money back (which I think is still unfair) but I agreed to it. It was a terrible experience.
