This rental was justvas seen in the pictures, everything was pristine, basically brand new. Nice location in a family oriented neighborhood, with a nice little family owned market 2 blks down, also a few blks from the main street, and like 10 mins from the heart of downtown.. trust I'd stay there again if its available....
