Some concerns that were not addressed during our stay made it not as enjoyable as it could have been. The refrigerator had a constant beep every 2 seconds that could be heard throughout the house. We had to unplug the refrigerator to turn it off. A maintenance person showed up with no resolution. Multiple calls and text's were made but the issue remained The food we bought or our trip went bad. We had to go to the market every day for food for that day which consumed the time that was meant for us to be spent together. The microwave, never worked at all. These issues should have been taken care of during our stay, but never were. Other than that the house was comfortable, well equipped, and the neighborhood was nice with easy access to local hot spots. ##### Rachel J. Stayed 7 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andreas E. 8 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Lots of space A very nice interior with 5 bedrooms. Nice baths and nice kitchen. Would appreciate better outside patio furnitures. Overall great ##### Andreas E.
