The staff volunteered to help us find another property where this wouldn’t be an issue but we loved the property and the location so chose to stay. The staff went out of their way to make things work for us and we had a wonderful stay. I would give this property an extremely high recommendation… my favorite stay of our 5 week long vacation"
