"The location was perfect; close to everything, quiet area, and amazing view! Communication/responses were quick and check in was a breeze. Home was very clean, stylishly decorated, beds comfortable, and was well stocked with everything you'd need during travel (towels, nice shampoo/conditioner, hair dryer, good smelling laundry detergent, dryer a big plus!). The patios were really nice as well. Highly recommend, we wished we stayed longer. "
