The house itself is very spacious, which was a big plus for our group. However, our overall experience was disappointing. When we arrived, there were several piles of trash left on the property, which made the place feel neglected. We also couldn’t access the home due to issues with the automated lock, and unfortunately, the property management company was slow to respond and unhelpful in resolving the issue. While the space has potential, the lack of cleanliness and poor support made for a frustrating stay.
