Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Lovely little home in a great location! The set up of the home was great and we actually loved everything about it, except the AC on the first level (where 2 of the 3 bedrooms were) is not great. Other reviewers mentioned this, and they were accurate, it doesn't cool very well regardless of what the setting says. The upstairs is super cool at a higher temp setting, so perhaps the AC unit on the first floor needs replacing. Otherwise, just wonderful and would think about renting again!
