Kitchen was great but the bedrooms/baths need updated. Furniture from the 80's. Bathrooms small, no hot water in one of them. Nice stay overall, but really needs to be updated to the 21st century. ##### Tame D.

Also I have stayed in these units for years and can't for the life of me understand why you don't include shampoo and conditioner - pretty lame. I would gladly pay more if you guys would update and include shampoo and conditioner. Thanks, Mr. Myres ##### Wes M.

I excepted better based on the pictures ##### Michael B. Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Kristin R. 2 Jul 2018 #### Casita stay Everything was good and we had a blast! Just 2 things that weren’t up to par. The hot tub didn’t work. I informed them on the first night and they said they would have someone out to fix the following day but no one came and the hot tub still didn’t work. So unfortunately there was no hot tub for our stay :/ Second, we stated that there were 6 people coming (so two rooms and then the couch) but there was only linens for the 2 beds. We made it work though! Other than that, the stay was fine and we had a great time! ##### Kristin R.
