Privacy in the middle of the action
Location of property offers convenient access to historic downtown whenever you want. However, the option to privately and quietly spend time in the outside area is there as well. Well maintained property,

Cleanliness
The location is great and we were very pleased., but as previous review mentioned, it could be cleaner. The outside space is unusable. The sitting areas were very dirty and the pool was full of debris and you can’t swim. Debris also blows in the back door to the bedroom and there was no broom to clean with, and rugs would be helpful.. The floors throughout including shower area need a good steam cleaning. The bedroom, living area space and kitchenette was comfortable and appliances were very clean and clean linen was supplied. The bedroom mattress was very comfortable but had king sheets on a king bed. A gentleman did come to blow off the porch area, but did very little to improve the outside area. All in all the unit is in an amazing location but after being charged a cleaning fee, I would recommend finding a new cleaning service. Also if you are wanting a pool, l would not choose this one.
