"Rental was clean and host was very responsive to questions that arose during the stay. Host decorated for my birthday which was very nice. Location was good for access to beaches and restaurants. Location is on a state route and the road noise was loud when sitting outside and could be heard from bedrooms upstairs. Was not an issue but maybe for others."
