Very clean. Quiet neighborhood and short drive to town. Beautiful patio area ##### Kyla Stayed 1 night in Jan 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dennis 9 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication Nice property. It is about a 20 minute walk to the restaurants if that matters to you. Why do you need the cumbersome set of keys to EXIT the pool area? Not very safe. ##### Dennis Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Dharmendra 3 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Safe, quiet. Need to clean the daddy leg spiders in the entrance hallway and maybe spice it up with a picture so you feel welcome when you come to the apartment each time. When we first came in it would have been nice if the Heatpump was on at a comfortable temperature. Shower is unusually small. Overall good but for the money I would still search around for better luxury unless you love the boats out look. Space wise the room is very good. ##### Dharmendra Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Farrell 26 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Property def exceeded expectations.
