Thanks for the review, Nelson. This unit is perfect for relaxation and for a large family so we are glad you could enjoy yourself. We appreciate the feedback!
The entrance is amazing and very little noise from any neighbors. The house is a little unique in that the master bedroom does not have an en-suite bath but it has a private bath that you have to go into the hall to use. The downstairs bedrooms are great but to access one of the rooms you have to go through the other bedroom and also go through one to access the downstairs kitchen. Overall, a great place!
