Everything was as expected. Thanks.
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Sep 2025
Very convenient location for the Ironman triathlon. Property was clean and easy to find. Overall the property worked out well. Things to improve: lighting makes it dark and the shower didn’t drain well so we took showers in standing water. Check-in was easy.
6.0 / 10.0Average·Oct 2025
This house is ok, nothing great, nothing awful. This house is very dark, it’s very hard to see anywhere beside the bathrooms.
