The unit was was spacious and comfortable we felt like home. ##### NANCY Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lisbeth Jul 12, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication We stayed for 3 days and the condo was super nice, when arrived the first thing we noticed was how clean the place was. Someone had taken our parking space but the owner or person in charged helped us even though it was super late. The response was fast and efficient. The condo was super cold so no complaints in that department as it was extremely hot outside during the day. ##### Lisbeth Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Sean Jun 23, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Overall this was a nice place however the AC did not work properly. It was so hot in there especially after being at a softball tournament during the day & coming home to that, twice! And through the night. We messaged the host about 4 times with no response. Pretty frustrating & unfair! ##### Sean Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Toni Jul 25, 2025 Disliked: Communication #### Loud and confusing The place was just fine and clean but there was no extra toilet paper. The windows had no curtains, only blinds, so the street lights kept it too bright at night. Also the road noise was awful! The communication was awful. They sent 4 messages, only the first message had the correct room number and only the last message had the correct code to get in to the room. After sending out a message asking for help because I couldn’t get into the wrong room with the wrong code (which someone ended up being in by the way and was not happy I was trying to get in there apt) was I able to figure it out and go to the first messages room number with the last messages code. I never received a reply message from the host. There was also no detailed departure instructions. I had read something when I booked about taking out the trash or there would be a fee but that was not listed in the departure instructions and that left me very confused. ##### Toni Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jen Aug 22, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication #### College Kid Drop Off Host was amazing!
