Some dirty dishes found upon arrival-otherwise clean. Great communication. It is a small studio but liked having the balcony. ##### Chandra P. Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### T B. Jul 28, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy The actual apartment was nice - bed comfortable, kitchen has all that's needed, plenty of towels, good wi-fi, lots of cable stations. The property itself is a bit shabby. Carpets worn, moth infestation in stairwells, cracked pavement etc. The walls/floors are pretty thin and there was a thundering herd of children above us. Pool was nice and well maintained. Easy parking - good communication with host. ##### T B. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Vera S.
