The place was spotless when we arrived. We found the beds very comfortable. The location was central to many shops and restaurants. The designated parking space was very convenient. Although we didn't cook any big meals at the rental, the kitchen was well equipped. We had a some trouble with the patio door, but our host was very responsive and came to fix the patio door. We would stay at Alli's again. ##### Michelle T. Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2025
