Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
We noted a small issue when we first arrived and they immediately sent someone over to fix it.The location was fantastic, with water views. Having three bedrooms and two bathrooms made the visit great for us, as we were traveling with our 90 year old mother. Also having only a couple steps up into the house mattered.Overall wonderful and would stay again!
