The place was nice. There were a few things that need updated. The bed was too safe for us & we weren’t able to sit on the patio to eat - not table. Paying for the parking part (we have never had to pay at other places) was the worse part.

Overall great experience, from cleanliness to property description expectations. Only issue was the cleaning crew was excessive with the pine sol or whatever cleaning product used on the floors where the scent was a little overwhelming and we had to open the doors to air it out. After that initial air out of the odor it was fine. I understand that some people equate cleaning product to cleanliness but I’m not a fan of chemicals.
