Great location, home exactly as described. Highly recommend. Excellent communication from host as well.
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Oct 2025
Booking was a breeze! Daniel, the host, is amazing and communicates like a dream!Check-in couldn’t be easier. Location in downtown Des Monies is ideal. Parking is easy and all needs are within walking distance or a very short drive. The condo is super clean and as described. Kitchen is stocked adequately for basic cooking, which is what we needed. Bathrooms were even stocked with supplies which was total bonus for my kids who never bring their own supplies!!! I’m a very picky bed person, so the beds were less than what I wanted (but I’m admittedly very difficult to please…it’s a me thing). If my feet are clean at the end of the day I’m pleased, and I honestly was extremely impressed with the cleanliness of this home!Overall, Daniel was the ideal host. He answered every single question within minutes. We had a packed agenda with a needy wrestler who was cutting weight, with specific workout needs, eating needs, resting needs, etc. Daniel was easily able to accommodate us, and while we are absolutely zero pressure guests we will always repay the kindness!Enjoy your travel in this comfortable, clean, condo in downtown Des Monies…you really can’t go wrong.
6.0 / 10.0Average·May 2025
We were greatly disappointed in the quality. The sliding door did not lock securely and was unlocked. The furniture is flimsy (1 broken stool was unsafe to sit on). The queen-sized beds were cheap foam that was not very comfortable to sleep on. There were only 3 wine glasses, no coffee for the coffee pot. It was a clean, cheap place to stay, but not an Excellent property.
