Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy

#### 3 week stay

Rental was as described. The parking in front of the house is not reserved. You can park anywhere on the street. There could be better description of pickup times for garbage. Everything else worked out perfectly in the location on the island is excellent
