Beware of this property - Manager Does not care!

I encountered AC issues with this rental. The AC unit is located directly above the bedrooms. I rented this place for four nights and there was little to no AC. I contacted the manager and it initially took a full day to respond. When they finally responded, I had to request that they send a technician "after hours" since the AC techs were all busy during the day. The tech finally came and did not fix the issue. I contacted the manager again and they got the tech to return and the second time they did not resolve the AC issue. I asked the manager for a partial refund for all the issues I encountered and the manager refused to give me a partial refund. Beware of this property! Also the pictures online make the place look much bigger than it really is.

Mothers Day Trip

We enjoyed our stay! Very nice place that is quiet and comfortable. As per usual, the sleeper sofa is not comfortable but the upstairs beds were very comfy. Suggestions for improvement would include usable hand soap (upstairs had a bottle of water in a old soap bottle with no lid), a little laundry detergent to start the washer for the housekeepers, more than two rolls of toilet paper for 5 people, blankets for the sleeper sofa, and more than two wine glasses (one of which was cracked). Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
