I chose this unit because of the location near our son & daughter-in-law's house. Was 1 block away and perfect for a weekend getaway in the big city. The pictures were spot on and the host ( Jim ) was outstanding. Everything was clean. Check in worked perfect. Have given the Vrbo info to our son for his friends to use if they come for a visit. Way nicer then a hotel! Thanks again, Tom & Jan.
