Sorry, I hate giving bad reviews. The home looked nothing like the photos.The place smelled so bad we had to put dryer sheets on the ceiling fans. The coffee pot wasn’t emptied so it was moldy. The silverware was dirty, even the drawer was dirty.

Short Vacation in St. Petersburg

The cottage was very clean. We would suggest some hotel style shampoo and bath soaps. The parking was not very helpful in the dark. A picture or drawing would be very helpful for the parking directions.
