The only complaint we have is whatever cleaner is used smells horrible. For the first 2 days of our stay we had to open the windows and doors to air out the place. ##### Gerry L. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Connie V. 10 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great rental We stayed for a long weekend over the 4th of July. We had an issue with the cable tv but our host was extremely responsive and got our issue resolved quickly. This unit faces north so there are no sunrise or sunsets to view from the balcony. The elevator is very scary and didn't work some of the time. Overall we would rent this unit again. ##### Connie V.
