Mar 23, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Good Times! Our family of four stayed here for five nights while visiting family and friends, and it was a fantastic home base! After long days running around the city, we loved coming back to plenty of space to spread out and recharge in our own rooms. My son set up his Xbox in the living room and had a blast playing on the big screen.Though we didn’t pick this place for the hot tub (which is cleaned daily), we ended up using it almost every night—it was such a fun bonus! The full kitchen made it easy to cook meals, and as someone who walks with our Schnauzer at least an hour daily, I really enjoyed exploring the neighborhood and the Bayfront.It always takes a little time to get used to a new layout with the assorted idiosyncrasies, but overall, this was a great place to stay—comfortable, convenient, and no complaints! ##### David E.
