Cozy and comfortable

Everything was clean and comfortable. Communication was a bit of a problem.The neighborhood was ok, but needed transportation to get around. It would have been nice if there was coffee available for the coffee bar.

Nice Place

The home was nice and clean. It was in a good location for everything we wanted to do. It could be stocked a little better, almost out of hand soap and no blow dryer. Extra blankets would've been nice. The only real problem we had that was very bothersome was the three roaches we seen. Other than that, we really enjoyed our stay.

Very disappointing

There were roaches everywhere. Crumbs and dirt in the master bedroom all over the floor. One of the railings for the back balcony was broken which made it very dangerous for any small kids to be on the back balcony with us. I will never stay in this rental again!

Disappointed a little in communication of a problem

We were disappointed with communication with manager of property. We contacted about an electrical problem , was told to check breaker upon stated that didnt work. They said we will send an electrician. Contacted the next day that noone showed up . There was no response at all. We only had part of electricity in the house and quite concerned about this.. This happen on the 2nd day of stay and We were there for 4 days.in total. Also, we killed some baby roaches. Just a disappointment. And we are still waiting on a response from someone.

Neighbors are not pleasant

Stayed in town for my child's event at the Convention Center. The one neighbors blared music from 10-12:30AM, really wasn't pleasant. Also cars all in front of the house. Communication was spot on with property managers before check in. Could have been a little cleaner but overall was not too bad.
