Had a nice stay!

The place was the perfect size for me and the bestie to get ourselves ready for nights out together and still have our own space to decompress. Unfortunately there were staples sticking up

Door Code given was not correct. Phone number given had been cancelled. Took awhile with an extra phone call to Vrbo to get a phone that worked and revised door code.

Good Stay

Initially communications with the host were a little difficult messages were unanswered, and I wasn't given the correct door code. I had to communicate with a buildings resident to get in contact with the host. Kelly was more communicative with me from that point on. Unit was clean as advertised and suited our needs for the duration of our stay. Only things i would reccomend the toilet didn't have a strong water flush to it, and it would have been nice to have oven trays to cook in the oven as well as additional mugs and glassware.

To the owner. I was not pleased with the brown towels..You can not bleach colored towels. Plus the towels had long hair attached. Also, I needed a pot and your property doesn't provide basis kitchen tools. Final, I was sweeping the kitchen floor and swept up black dog hair.. The kitchen floor was not clean which made me wonder about the brown and yellow towels. I thought the property was decorated nicely but your cleaning staff droped the ball.
