10 / 10Outstanding·Apr 2024
First, the location cannot be beat!! We were able to walk everywhere and absolutely loved the area!! The unit itself was cozy, bright and had just about everything we needed! We loved it here!! I did reach out about the low battery on the front door and extra pillows and found communication to be easy and quick— much appreciated!! I also enjoyed not having to worry about a key for the door— a keypad code made it much easier! Bed/bedding was comfortable, shower pressure was nice and water was hot!
