Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The property was not what we were expecting. It was a five bedroom home. It was very clean and when we had trouble with our door knob to our room, he came over and fixed it right away. When the outside door would not lock, no one came and fixed it
Stayed 8 nights in Feb 2025
