Apr 17, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Clean and comfortable stay This condo was a good choice. Easy check in, easy parking, very clean and comfortable. A bit snug for 3 of us, but as expected in a one bedroom. Located in a subdivision with easy walk to groceries and main street. My only issue was with the cookware. There was only a small pot large enough for a can of soup. We had pasta with us. I had to use the only large size pot which was a rice steamer, to make pasta. Otherwise all was well. I would recommend staying here. ##### kathy L. Stayed 1 night in Apr 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David Feb 12, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication This review is for a larger property than the studio we booked as we were upgraded to a 3 bedroom single level home. Entry was via an electronic key pad and this worked well. The facilities were excellent including dish washer, laundry and all the other normal kitchen appliances. The bedrooms were spacious and 2 of the 3 en-suite plus a ‘family’ bathroom. There was enough parking for at least 2 cars. This property is known as Alpine A and I would recommend it . . .
